Rick's theory on appeals is from the Bremigan interpretation. Rick was a student of Nick and his philosophy on appeals is consistent with the Bremigan interpretation.
It also differs from the PBUC interpretation.
Therefore, you will get differrent answers to question 1 depending upon which authority you are reading.
Bottom Line - Question 1 is in the "grey area" and obviously a point not covered in the rules.
