Bill history proposition

Preface: Since the Unique Bill Identifier bill was vetoed and there is still no mechanism in place for this I thought I'd propose a simpler but equally reliable mechanism for one of the problem that bill addressed- amending a bill/proposition after it has been posted. While the UBIB would've addressed this by incrementing the Bill ID if it's amendmended and requiring it be reposted as to the original edited, this bill seeks to solve the issue with a simpler solution.

§1 Terms
§1.1: All changes to a bill made after proposition must be clearly stated in a footnote stating what was changed and optionally for what reason. This is to prevent someone from creating a simple, useful bill, getting positive and/or supportive comments, then modifying it to mock support for a disliked proposition.
§1.2: Footnotes are not required for the following:
(a): Changes that do not affect the meaning, e.g. spelling fixes.
(b): Clarifications or rewordings that clarify an existing rule.
(c): Reformatting or otherwise changing the structure without modifying the meaning.
§1.3: A bill post must not be significantly or meaningfully modified after it has been passed by council. This is to avoid confusion on what rules are in affect/actually passed. Exception: If council modifies a bill before passing it the original post may be modified to reflect the updated version.
§2 Enforcement
§2.1: Any bills in breach of the listed terms shall be considered a breach of the law and a potentially bannable offense.
§2.2: This bill shall go into affect upon passing.
