Tsk.  We just had a relatively recent CFI that said 
recognition and the need for same is defined by precedent.  
Granted that's not explicit, but the justification for that 
CFI cited the instances in the rules where recognition was 
defined.  That, taken together with the default case, 
regulates recognition.

So, les'n you want to bribe a judge (which *ahem* there's game 
precedent for...), this ain't gonna fly.
