Being the supplicant, I can't make a claim here, but if I could I would say
this answer is inconsistent with itself, unfortunately. If P1911 did not
change the past, then it did not change the fact that Sgeo's Hit Points had
been reduced in the past. So wouldn't that mean this Sgeo's HP should be
increased ndaily?
