This sounds reasonable as you explain it. No doubt someone will try to misunderstand it before the 2014 Business Meeting! But you make a good case for having a small caliber anti-motion gun.

I believe most people who are trying to introduce things deserve 120 seconds to explain why their idea isn't totally stupid before it's tossed out (okay, some ideas are stupid, but the cost of politeness isn't that high). If nothing else, the well intentioned fan who shows up one year with the Stupid Hugo Revision can learn something relatively painlessly and maybe return in a few years with a Somewhat Plausible Hugo Revision.
