Call for Judgement: Virus inversion

The original Virus rule read:

Every day, every Specimen that absorbs the same element as the Virus emits looses x Size, where x is the Size of the Virus divided by 5. If the Specimen also emits the same element as the Virus absorbs, it is imune to this effect.


When the Control Strain edited it, in conformity with CfJ: Vote of Confidence, it came out as:

When the Virus Pollutes, every Strain that absorbs the same element as the Virus, and which emits a different element, loses x Size, where x is the Size of the Virus divided by 5.


In my opinion, the corrected version does exactly the opposite of what the original one was meant to do.

To correct that, should this CfJ pass, the relevant portion shall be worded:

When the Virus Pollutes, every Strain that absorbs the same element as the Virus emits, and which emits an element different from which the Virus absorbs, loses x Size, where x is the Size of the Virus divided by 5.


Besides that, I congratulate Kevan for the expedite and very good work done.
