Prioritisation for the Puzzler

Per the Appendix rule “Prioritisation”, am I correct in thinking that, between:

  • In the rule Scoring, “The Puzzler is considered to be a Wordsmith for the purposes of this rule.”
  • In the rule The Threshold, “only Wordsmiths whose names are listed in the Endgame Wordsmiths list are considered Wordsmiths for the purposes of dynastic rules”

The Endgame Wordsmiths prohibition takes precedence, and the Puzzler is no longer considered to be a Wordsmith for the Scoring rule since my name is not in the Endgame Wordsmiths list?

I would say that the Scoring clause has priority as it has the narrower scope (“this rule” vs “the dynastic rules”).

Likewise. Also a narrower scope for only applying to the Puzzler.

Thanks for the clarification!
