Not to be argumentative but some do shift between aspects, they even have a name: Menshad Korum. I only know that as of about 4 hrs ago when I was researching Exarchs Edit: Ninja'd !!
I didn't knew about the Menshad Korum and for good reason, is from a CS Goto short story... so for me it doesn't exist lol
Worry not, that story was published in 2005 but the definition was given all the way back in 1990 in WD I'm glad. I like the idea even though it's still not a common practice for Exarchs.
