→Ambiguity
===Ambiguity===
The manipulation of the laws of time, Chronaxic manipulation, is one of the prime bans. As an example of the ambiguity and nuance of these strictures, during the [[Conclave Chronalis]], [[Archmagos]] [[Belisarius Cawl]] presented a planned xenotech acquisition expedition involving travelling near the event horizon of a black hole. This would inevitably involve voyaging through time, in a way. A split in debate amongst the argument assembled tech-priests would rapidly emerge, some temporal experts insisted that no fundamental laws of either the Cult or of material science would be broken, as they were dealing with a natural effect. While a minority decried this plan is de facto voyaging through time and clearly forbidden, no matter how Cawl's argument was dressed up.{{Fn|2}}
