Well, quoting Rule 1688, Power: A Rule that secures a change, action, or value (hereafter the securing Rule) thereby makes it IMPOSSIBLE to perform that change or action, or to set or modify that value, except as allowed by an Instrument with Power greater than or equal to the change's Power Threshold. This Threshold defaults to the securing Rule's Power, but CAN be lowered as allowed by that Rule (including by the Rule itself). So yeah, if T is secured with Power 3, you can only change T using something that has *at least* Power 3. Which, in a way, *is* attaching T to a rule to prevent it from changing too much, so I guess I wasn't too far off. (^_^) ~ Bloody Ocean

I don't see why it'd work at the moment. That and Writs of FAGE, either. Sounds broken! I like it. Can anyone confirm/infirm? =P ~ Red Sea
Re: DIS: Secured
Nice catch. Relevant history entry: Power changed from 2 to 3 by Proposal 7610 (G.), 22 December 2013 Regarding the current roster, I believe the Registrar's Report of 4 June has self-ratified; it was the first to be published after my proposal to make switch reports self-ratifying.
