A3.1: Property is all things not possessing Sapience.
A3.2: Persons interact with Property through Ownership, defined as total exclusive control, and Transfer, defined as change of control.
A3.3: Ownership of Property confers the Sovereign Right, defined as the ability to do unto Property as one wills.
A3.4: All Property is unowned until a single, undisputed claim of Ownership is located, identified, and sustained.
- "Sustained" here can be thought of in the way a piano key is sustained when continually pressed, even silently.
That the sound is no longer being transmitted is not indicative that the key is not being actively played. The
note being hit is not what we care about, it's whether or not the instrument is being actively actuated.
A Casio DG-20 can certainly be played without being powered on.
