Well, causing a proposal to take effect without setting its power is useless. But if it's somehow possible to trigger R106's clause that sets a proposal's power, I'd say doing so (other than as it explicitly states, by having a decision that's ADOPTED) would count as modifying a "substantive aspect" of R106.
