[Fluxx] Hand Limit 0 fiine print mistake

Sorry to leaving you wondering so long on this... sorry also for the mistake that caused this whole debate.

The fine print on Hand Limit 0 is wrong. Hand Limit 0 should be treated like any other Hand Limit -- during Inflation, the Hand Limit is 1. The fine print should contain a numeral, and we should have caught that in 3.0 (or certainly in 3.1) but somehow it slipped through. Next time for sure!

Sorry for the confusion!

Remember, many, many cards were reworded to make them work with X=X+1.

Since Hand Limit 0 was not reworded, this is either a mistake (should
have renamed the card if it was intended not to work with Inflation)
or a mistake (should have reworded).  Keeping the name the same while
keeping the text non-inflatable just creates misplays.
