to address two or more divorced subjects
3. The Presiding Officer of the Senate is empowered to enforce this resolution

This would hamstring a senators right to amend so i'm against it.

Ammendmets by definition are within teh same matter. Unless you wanted to ammend a bill say, legalizing marijuana to illegalize crosbreading of pigs with weasels.
