That would be nice. I think that way you could actually come up with a
reasonable way to make rules order independent. There would probably still be
some tricky aspects, but getting rid of ordering would make things a lot less
error prone. The trade off might be having to repeat similar rules in multiple
places. It shouldn't even be that hard to test this as, turning the latter
into the former with a program shouldn't be that hard. (Note I am currently
working on reviving the games spin for F11 and am not volunteering to try
doing this at this time.)
