Well, that's an arbitrary text that doesn't exist, it's always possible to 
make one of those that breaks things; But I see you mean in that this 
particular text:
                                                         "Except as
    prohibited by other rules, a proposal that takes effect CAN, as
    part of its effect, apply the changes that it specifies."
should be in R106 not the new power-2 rule (thought it was in one
draft).

It actually doesn't *technically* break, in that R106 sets the proposal's 
power to 3 and then R1688 applies the CAN, but it means the quoted part of
the rule above is useless at power-2.  Not broken, but not useful.  Fair
enough.
