ng the "formatting" rules and Tsu, I think the larger issue here is that it is hard to navigate the laws currently as they seem to be highly nonstandard.
Our goal should be that everyone who wants to amend or add to our laws follows standard formatting and is not accidentally using old drafts or texts of laws.

Sometimes I feel overwhelmed when trying to find specific things or even make sense of the overall structure of the laws and I wonder how newer players might feel the same way.

The problem isn't about being "overwhelmed" but ... legislating the color and way we're allowed to proposed laws is overly restricting. Our problem is that a lot wasn't updated properly, not that people aren't coloring legislative proposals properly.

I'm also thinking about how prohibitive restrictions are going to be for anyone who wants to draft legislation and/or run for Chair. I'll be honest, if we're legislating these minute restrictions, you can count me out of both.
