Thanks, Kief!  Actually, this one was the only real "glitch" of the
things I posted.  The others were more to point out that our "game" is
exactly that - a game, with some artificial rules that we've imposed for
safety, "playability", and so forth.  I posted them more because the
argument I saw regarding these issues seemed a little silly - the one
side saying "oh, by the way, here's an artificiality imposed by our
rules that's not entirely consistent with our stated 'conceptual'
practice", and the other side saying "no, that's just how it should be,
given our 'conceptual' practice."  Thought I'd introduce them here for
discussion.

Thanks to everyone else who threw in their two cents, as well.
