May 2, 2016 at 16:20 comment added SevenSidedDie @Wibbs “RAI” can also mean “rules as interpreted”, which is necessarily a non-designer doing it. Having multiple opposed meanings is why the acronym RAI is generally to be avoided; in this case though, it's unambiguous that “interpreted” is what the I stands for.

I can just manage it with a guitar, though I can't offer you a melody that way.
