There's no mention in these rules of accepting nominees that are ineligigible when nominated.
Actually, there is. Section 3.8 of the WSFS Constitution has rules regarding the tallying of nominations, including what to do when someone nominates in the "wrong" category.
I might be wrong as you say, but by the rules available, I am right.
Only because you're reading the rules every woodenly, out of context, and with a pre-defined destination: You appear to want rules that make everything prohibited except for specifically permitted functions, whereas our rules are primarily written to allow anything not prohibited. But it's very fannish (and not in a good way) to try and treat rules as if they were a computer program, even though that's not possible in the real world.
