Why did you put "I propose" before the mail headers?

I seem to recall that at some point in the past, we determined that in 
B Nomic, as in mathematics, zero is not a positive number. I suspect 
you were assuming it was, since you said "positive nonzero number". 
What you actually mean is Postive charm, Positive activity, and 
Nonnegative Respect.

I think that it will be easier in the future to change both this rule 
and the seniority rule if instead the exception were made in r1282, as 
in, 'when a player reaches eir two year mark, e gets a Win; this does 
not cause a rule called "No Win For You" to be created.'
