I believe it's 754(1) that grants them meaning, since those words have
no ordinary-language meaning.  I'd say they represent either a
difference in spelling or dialect, depending on your view of whether a

This isn't strictly needed.  From Rule 591:

  The judgement of the question in an inquiry case, and the
  reasoning by which it was reached, SHOULD guide future play
  (including future judgements), but do not directly affect the
  veracity of the statement.

However, to get the formal record updated, it would be cleaner to
allow a late appeal, e.g. create a rule with this text:

  Any player CAN appeal CFJ 2050 by announcement, upon which this
  rule is repealed.

Rule 2170 (Who Am I?) should probably also be amended to state that
X CAN act on behalf of Y constitutes a legal fiction that Y is the

R2170 already defines Executor (as the first-class person who sends
it, or who most directly and immediately causes it to be sent).  Going

By the way, if we're going to make power of attorney explicit, we
should learn from Rule 2170-- not all executorships are now nor should
be announcements that I act on behalf of you.  When Googlebot causes
PNP to send a message, there are several different first-class persons
about equally likely to have most directly caused the message to be
sent, none of which really match what an Executor is supposed to be.
We could force Executors to be explicit, but I think it would be
better to just not use the concept, so we can let the PNP live
naturally as a robot, instead of forcing it into the mold of a
traditional partnership.
