The ban on changing the text of a proposal was added to the rules specifically to prevent the repeat of an escalator scam (in which a power-1 rule made a power-3 change to the ruleset via editing a proposal between the end of the voting period and the assessment of the proposal). This change would reintroduce the scam. At least the proposal's text and AI need to be secured against edits at power 3. (I'm not sure whether other properties need the same protection.) -- ais523
