You're wrong. See CFJ 254 for why.

Also wrong. As Wonko points out, that text was only added by P448/2. Since the CFJ in question is CFJ 447, that text was not there when the CFJ was submitted, rendering the judgment fundamentally wrong.

"No, *you* don't get it: I don't care". Points aren't interesting; who cares if Wonko gets them? I'm aware that a proosal number limit also limits the number of points you can get, but I'd rather see his 50 interesting proosals, or be able to proose repealing each rule that's in P521 separately, than try to bring myself to care about score.
