I think the confusion arises from the interpretation of "non-sedentary". What seems to be the author's assumption is that it applies exclusively to those moving around inside a country's borders, when this is simply not the case. There are many Non-sedentary behaviors, lifestyles, and cultures (such as statelessness), which call for adherents to move through many nations, not just one. Especially in states with residency requirements for citizenship, this conflicts with existing laws. In the real world, the vast majority of countries have such a requirement. Examples would include the United States, United Kingdom, France, and Japan, which require citizenship seekers to reside in the country for five years before applying, Germany, which requires eight years, Austria, which requires ten years, and Australia, which requires a four-year residency. Of course, this is just a tiny slice of the truly mammoth amount of countries that maintain such prerequisites, and if something is so common OOC, it's almost certainly common IC too. The unfortunate truth is, the broadness of clause six could interfere with WA member states' ability to choose who does and does not gain citizenship status, what services are tied to citizenship and resident status, and a variety of other government services which need to take residency into account. It would be quite rash to support this.Wallenburg wrote:"As I suspected, you are incapable of distinguishing between citizenship and sedentism. The issue most clearly is not with the language of this proposal, but with your bigotry toward those who do not keep a permanent address. In your floundering attempts to deny this, you only make more apparent what I suspected from your initial complaint."
If you truly do not understand the nature of this criticism, I suggest you read the explanation above.

The Federation of Berusturg votes Against this proposal:Our Ministers believe that this proposal may or may not cancel out the border control between North and South Bymia, which is significantly more difficult to get through than other borders around the state. They believe that the tension between the two provinces is yet to reach acceptable levels and will keep the stricter border control between the two until then.

- Member states may restrict the use of one or more modes of transportation from one area to another in any manner not yet prohibited under international law, as long as individuals are still capable of traveling from one to the other in a timely and widely affordable fashion, without significantly increased risk to their health or safety.
