was "If there is a proposal in this message, I create it.", not the first
part of the message. The real question that needs to be answered by the CFJ
is what "If there is a proposal in this message" evaluates to. I think it
would be false that a proposal was in the message, since it was just the
attributes, but maybe the conditional doesn't care about that and works off
something else.
