Succession (Scotland) Act 1964
Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.

21A Evidence as to testamentary documents in commissary proceedings.
Confirmation of an executor to property disposed of in a testamentary document executed after the commencement of the Requirements of Writing (Scotland) Act 1995 shall not be granted unless the formal validity of the document is governed— (a) by Scots law and the document is presumed under section 3 or 4 of that Act to have been subscribed or under section 9C or 9D (or by virtue of section 9E(1)) of that Act to have been authenticated by the granter so disposing of that property; or (b) by a law other than Scots law and the court is satisfied that the document is formally valid according to the law governing such validity.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".
Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.
A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
