Historical note: these differences are there specifically because it
would have been a pain to rewrite pieces of very old legislation to
conform to modern Agora-style standards, so the standards got adapted.

CFJ is a valid synonym, by the way, so you can call them that way and
not have it be invalid.

It's a limited to voting on behalf, though.

This is because dependent actions are one of the few pieces of the
rules kept from the B-Goran ruleset rather than revived from old
stuff. Unless I'm forgetting a change to them, they work exactly as
they did in B at the time of the refresh, and I'm not sure if that was
ever modified since we stole the concept from Agora.
