The idea is to rule out paradoxes similar to previous paradoxes. Ideally
legislation would prevent them being paradoxes too, but that list has a
nod to each previous paradox (apart from the BobTHJ registration status
one, because it was really weird and if it happened again, I wouldn't
consider that boring.)

I'd intended modifying the list of Boring Proposals to redefine "Boring".
Sorry if that wasn't clear.
