    Number the core rules as section 0 and cite them from the phases
    
    The index claimed to name every section but core rules sat outside it. 
Numbering
    it 0 closes that, and the entry now names the rules rather than saying to 
apply
    them -- with a note that it is not a step, since a 0-7 list otherwise reads 
as a
    sequence to work through.
