I want Iona and PS to switch places, not because that makes PS safe, but because I think Iona should be banned and PS should be legal regardless of whether the other is legal or not. Iona is a toxic card that creates groan inducing moments and bad games all on its own. You play Iona, select a color, and somebody is getting hosed, but not the whole table. I've said elsewhere that using her to create a hard lock with PS would be preferable to her 'fair' use because at least that creates a winning game state that's usually going to result in a scoop, while her 'fair' use will often just piss off half the table. While PS has some degenerate interactions, they are really all just combos, and plenty of 2 card combos that win the game are legal. There are also fun interactions that PS unlocks, and that's more than can be said for Iona.
