No. Rule 129 makes everything legal, unless you object to something, in which case the thing to which you objected doesn't get *made* legal. The point I was making is that Glotmorf seems to think that if something isn't made legal by rule 129, it isn't legal at all, which is not the case - it simply retains its original legality (or lack of).

In the case where someone objects to something, a CFJ would determine whether or not what the statement they objected to referred to was legal or not.
