I do agree with these neat little rules thought experiments...
Maybe the webmaster can set up a "THE ROOM" and move topics like this in there so folks who want a better grasp of how the RRS play out can go in there and have fun. Maybe even figure out a way to graphically illustrate the situations?
Even better? Pick out a random (and sometimes obscure) scenario, describe it (graphically and written) along with the solution and rules applied (like Eric does) and put it in Catsailor MAG....
