That's how I intended it when I wrote it, anyway. I saw the Treasusor's role as maintaining a document with a method or methods that were handy and would save effort (and over time, be debugged) so as to "aid trade and commerce" without mandating it. Making it a regulation ensures the document has version control, and that some public review has to go into changing it, but I wasn't meaning it to crowd out other methods that the auctioneer might prefer. -G.
