Hmmm...

I DON'T CFI this, but I would like to open it to discussion:
{{
Statement: The sentence "Names given to game entities or types of game 
entities must be unique." in Rule 2 means that no entity may change eir 
name to a name ever used by another entity, regardless of whether or 
not the other entity still exists.

Defendant: Glotmorf

Analysis by Plaintiff:
Regardless of whether or not an object exists any more, if it once 
existed with an official name, then that name identifies that object. 
To create another object with the same name would be to cause that name 
to no longer uniquely identify an object; such a name would thus no 
longer be unique, violating Rule 2. As it is impossible to perform any 
action that violates the rules, it is thus impossible for any entity to 
change its name to the name of any other object, extant or otherwise.
}}

Anyone have any thoughts?
