So if a rule said:
Members must not apply postage stamps upside down on envelopes.
and the people who wrote that rule submitted to the Court that what the rule means is:
The fund may be expended on lollies.
do you reckon the Court would say: "Well okay then. The rule means the fund may be expended on lollies."
A rule means what it says, not what the people who wrote it think it means.
