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!
