You can advocate your beliefs, knowing that my playing game does not depend on them.I advocate a radical interpretation of 5e. You and others visibly struggle to accept it. My non-formalist beliefs allow me to understand that we are none of us doing anything inconsistent or ruled out."Per Dworkin, Hart fails to take into account concepts beyond rules and thus his “positivism is a model of and for a system of rules, and its central notion of a single fundamental test for law…forces us to miss the roles of...standards which are not rules."Per my non-formalist beliefs, that entails local right answers. On the grounds that any standards outside of rules will ultimately be settled locally. That does not make localities immune to the force of global standards.No need to reference it.
