You don't have much experience with PvP or else you would see the importance of a third party arbiter and official rulings on controversial matters.
Or maybe they just aren't following a mentality for PvP since nobody ever mentioned that being important in this thread.

Also, I feel like posting a build with alternative versions for different rulings makes far more sense then being adamant on your own point of view being the correct one.

WaroftheCrans hasn't even said that the PAM thing is something they believe in- they prefaced the build by saying that it tecnically works by a very strict reading ignoring everything else. Everybody's aware that it's unlikely to fly at several tables- that doesn't make it wrong or unfun or useless. Again, if you don't like it, why not just make your own thread?
