House Rules, Rulings, and Sage Advice

[Easy_Lee]

And ipse dixit is always persuasive. You're stating issues of taste (personal preference) as if they're fact.

I think that's the point, though. Sage advice is rulings. Some people consider those rulings to be above normal rulings, others don't.

But we have all seen people say "that doesn't work" in response to a thing, then reference SA as the reason. If SA is just rulings, then that shouldn't happen. People should just say they disagree with the ruling. But they don't. Many treat sage advice as if it was RAW, and accuse anyone who doesn't follow it of using house rules.

Is sage advice above a regular ruling? That's my question. Some people treat it that way, others think sa is garbage.
