Instead, they've used the word "becomes," which implies that it would be okay to use for its intended purpose alone.

I'm interested to read some others' interpretation of how we may be affected by that rule -- particularly anyone who will be an inspector or referee in Portland.
I interpret "becomes a wedge" in the same manner. Hopefully GLR and Detroit refs/judges will as well.

Beautiful design. How are you aiming the shooter? (If that's not giving too much away)
