Its existence is regulated.

More commonly, if a type of action involving washing machines is
described, then that type of action is regulated.  However, if a
TOAIWM isn't described, then presumably it isn't regulated; hence
(for instance) Agora's blanket provision regulating anything that
would change the contents of a Public Display (i.e. if a TOAIWM
isn't described, and WMs are part of a PD, then it's impossible).
