Proposal: High Power Cleanup (AI=3, coauthors=G, PSS)
{{{
Text in square brackets is not a substantive part of this proposal and is
ignored when it takes effect.
Amend Rule 105, bullet 2 to read "When a rule
<https://agoranomic.org/ruleset/#Rule2141> is repealed, it ceases to be a rule,
its power is set to 0, and the Rulekeepor
<https://agoranomic.org/ruleset/#Rule1051> need no longer maintain a record
of it."
[There is a ruling that repealed rules have their power set to 0, but I'm
not sure I fully agree with that conclusion; this makes it explicit which
can't hurt anyway.]
Amend Rule 106 by appending "Except insofar as the actions performed by a
proposal happen one after another, rather than simultaneously, a proposal's
effect is instantaneous. A proposal can neither delay nor extend its own
effect. Once a propsal finishes taking effect, its power is set to 0."
[Per discussion, do the same for proposals. While here, make it clear that
proposals are instantaneous. Please nitpick this, I'm pretty sure it's safe
but this is a very dangerous rule to get wrong.]
Set the power of all entities other than Rules, Regulations, and this
Proposal to 0. If rule 2493 was repealed, or the word "instrument" does not
appear in its text, also set the power of all Regulations to 0.
[This is a general cleanup that catches repealed rules and other entities.]
Amend Rule 105, bullet 3 by appending "Unless specified otherwise by the
re-enacting instrument, a re-enacted rule has power equal to the power it
had at the time of its repeal (or power 1, if power was not defined at the
time of that rule's repeal). If the re-enacting instrument is incapable of
setting the re-enacted rule's power to that value, then the re-enactment is
null and void."
[Re-enactment currently doesn't have a specified power; this causes it to
work roughly the way you would expect it to.]
Amend Rule 1023 by appending "The same applies, mutatis mutandis, to for
determining whether two points in time are within N months of each other,
for N greater than or equal to 2." as a new paragraph in the fourth bullet
in the first list.
[This makes the logical extension to "within 6 months", which is used,
explicit.]
