-I'd like to point out, in all seriousness, that B Nomic is better than your argument, and all arguments against this proposal. At least, it will be if it passes. Therefore, I see your point and fail to see a problem. The game would be just fine because it would hold itself up above any reason for it to collapse. B Nomic is better than collapse.-
