It is easier to assume that clause only applies to PrCs in those 2 books, rather than modifiying the core.

If you want to score a build differently because of your preferences, then that is your perogative as a judge. As for cheesing prerequisites, that is a whole other issue. But it mainly comes down to individual preferences IMO.
WinWin, that's not even what we were talking about. We were discussing Monk as a possible substitute for Rogue in Oduk's build and how the playground general view of 'Monk sucks' might have made the contestant avoid it and then Ring of Evasion was brought up. I was simply stating my personal opinion on the topic.
