remove a lot of the OG extra content and similar references
these are things that are not included in the core commons version
because they're homebrew, because they are a lot of writing/creativity
that I don't feel comfortable stealing/distributing, or so on. most of
Old Gus's and the community's content is removed in order to have a
near-CSRD state

what remains is the rules clarifications, errata, splicing together some
information from secondary sources (like the Starter Set or from game
authors on Twitter), and organizational assists

things removed includes ideas that I like, but either plan to write my
own way in the future, or again I just don't feel comfortable copying
verbatim, especially if, for instance, I have my own process and don't
need to advocate for a different one

stuff that's likely to get folded into my core is arbitrarily numbered
300s instead of 000s

-This optional rule creates additional risk for PCs taking damage or using powerful [special
-abilities](#choose-abilities) with lots of [Effort](#effort). Either situation creates lasting injuries that take longer
-to recover from.
-
-- **Damage:** When damage reduces a PC's [stat](#character-stats) [Pool](#pool) to 0, the remainder is temporarily
- subtracted from that stat's Pool maximum. The remainder (and any further damage) are also applied to another stat
- Pool, as described under [The Effects of Taking Damage](#the-effects-of-taking-damage). This effect is in addition
- to going down one step on [the damage track](#the-damage-track) as normal.
-
-- **Using Abilities:** When a PC uses a [special ability](#choose-abilities) with a [Pool](#pool) point cost they
- can't pay, the remainder is instead temporarily subtracted from their maximum Pool points for that stat.
-
-- **Recovering Pool Maximums:** A PC can recover temporary reductions to their [stat](#character-stats) [Pool](#pool)
- maximums by filling the Pool to its temporary maximum. While at the temporary maximum, [healing](#action-healing),
- [special abilities](#choose-abilities), [cyphers](#choose-cyphers), and [artifacts](#choose-artifacts) (but not
- [recovery rolls](#recovery-rolls)) restore lost points to a stat Pool's maximum.
-
-- **Pool Maximums Reaching Zero:** If any stat's Pool maximum is reduced to 0, the GM decides how best to proceed.
- For example, a PC might gain a permanent inability, permanently reduce a [stat](#character-stats) [Pool](#pool)
- maximum by 3, or die.
