Nope! That was supposed to be part of the joke. Even though it turned out to 
need to be power 3 to work (which may well cause problems getting it passed), 
the whole point of this rule is that it's a silly in-joke not to be taken very 
seriously. That's why, as Aris pointed out, the fine for violating it is only 1 
blot.

It also serves as a set-up for a future CFJ: does performing an action 
forbidden by a rule still count as ILLEGAL if the action consists of repealing 
the rule that makes it ILLEGAL?
