Re: [s-b] Action: Taking Ministry and Submitting a Consultation


I answer Consultation 35 "No."

Reasoning:

Rule 3-12 says that a device may have powers.  While the rule is badly
written, it seems clear that uniqueness (also not explicitly pointed
out as an "attribute") and powers are attributes of a device the same
as ownership is.
