Well, yeah, the proposal to fix the PBA should really come before this
part of my evil 2-part plan.  This part has the benefit of being the
easy part.

And the RBoA doesn't meet this definition why? "We can pass a hack  
motion

to fix the rates"? You can do that in the PBA too.

As ehird pointed out, the AFO is not a Comrade so it can't receive
coins, so this is 0.

I don't think such timed actions work in Agora. B used to have them,
and they caused all sorts of problems there, but that precise a timing
wouldn't have worked in B even when the rule existed, and it has since
been repealed there.
