Call for Judgment: Revising Complexity

Hix brought up the possibility of interpreting the Complexity rule as allowing infinite Complexity gain with each proposal. I think the wording is probably sufficient, but I want to make sure it’s airtight. This also gives us a chance to revise the rule if we want to take into account alternative methods of obtaining Complexity, to which I’m pretty open.
Replace the text in Lifeform Complexity
For each Proposal that is not a Trivial Proposal that is Passed, if a Lifeform’s counted vote on that Proposal had the effect of a FOR vote, e may, within 48 hours of the Proposal Passing, increase eir Complexity by 1.
With the text XYZ, where XYZ is the text accompanying Axeling’s counted FOR Vote for this CfJ. Do this replacement only if this text XYZ is found in 3 other counted Votes for this CfJ (minor typographical differences, as determined by the Admin resolving the CfJ, can be ignored for this requirement). If there is no suitable XYZ, or if it is not found in 3 other counted Votes for this CfJ, do not make any changes to the Rule.
If a Lifeform has gained more than 1 Complexity per Proposal that e is eligible for Complexity gain under Lifeform Complexity, reduce eir Complexity to X, where X is the number of Passed non-Trivial Proposals that e has voted FOR since the introduction of the Rule Lifeform Complexity.
ChronosPhaenon:
XYZ = “For each Proposal that is not a Trivial Proposal that is Passed, if a Lifeform’s counted vote on that Proposal had the effect of a FOR vote, e may once, within 48 hours of the Proposal Passing, increase eir Complexity by 1.”
