Another question: Is it a bug that the base ratification rule (R1551) doesn't actually claim precedence over rules it would override (e.g. over power-3 rules of lower number)? In particular, ratification doesn't claim any kind of precedence over Agoran Decision base rules, while Rule 208 "takes precedence over any rule that would provide another mechanism by which an Agoran decision may be resolved."?
Rule 2034 doesn't help, as the self-ratification part of it doesn't do any precedence claiming, either. -G.
