Completing an Incomplete Motion to Commit - 13:12

[George Mervosh]

13:12 notes that:  "But if different proposals are made, either in the form of primary and secondary amendments or simply as suggestions, the chair treats them as proposals to fill a blank (12:92-113) and puts them to vote in the following order until one receives a majority: (1) committee of the whole; (2) quasi committee of the whole (or "as if in committee of the whole"); (3) consider informally; (4) standing committees, in the order in which they are proposed; and (5) special (select, or ad hoc) committees, the one containing the largest number of members being voted on first. 

Was this order developed based on the size of the committee considering the referred matter, or was there some other reason?  

[Atul Kapur]

I always read it as following the rule in 12:111(b) "in the order of their probable acceptability, beginning with the least popular choice"

So, for 1, 2, and 3: "I want to send it to someone else to deal with -- not a group I sit on and will have to discuss!"
