I don't think it's correct to call Rule 1769 the "definition" of the term
holiday for R217 purposes.  Words like "holiday" aren't chosen randomly as
a term of art, they mean something.

In common language, a holiday is a special time period during which
special legal rules may apply.  Rule 1769 nonexclusively declares a couple
time periods to be holidays and (also nonexclusively) describes some
particular Agoran legal rules for holidays. That doesn't make it the
"definition" of a holiday, but rather wholly supports the common usage.

A lower-powered rule couldn't override this high-level common usage (by
declaring a person to be a holiday for example, out of keeping with the
common definition) but it's wholly in keeping with that R1769 usage, and
not at all "in conflict", to declare additional time periods to be holidays.

Seeing as this has been the dominating topic of conversation on the discord for days, we deserve a proper resolution.

Proto: Defining Holidays

Amend Rule 1769 "Holidays" by prepending the following paragraph:

An Agoran Holiday (or simply a Holiday) is a time period defined as such by the rules.
