Those 2 things conflict. First you create a A.6(3)(0), then you
say there is no A.6(3) left. Please clarify what you mean.

Where are those consequences documented? This is about the
non-binding statements?

So I understand that if there is no winner, and so maybe not
even a normal majority (that doesn't even exist anymore?) for it,

to change more than the things you want to fix.)
