The CFJ answer must be no, because otherwise Agora would cease to exist and
become ossified. If all actions are regulated, then they CAN be performed
only in the manner described by the rules. The rules do not describe how to
send or receive an email, etc. So if the CFJ is TRUE, then it would be
INEFFECTIVE to issue a judgement of TRUE (because the method of sending the
email issuing judgement would be regulated and there is no rule addressing
that), and it would be IMPOSSIBLE to change the rules, making agora
ossified.
