Dropping something (past tense dropped)
Dropping is one of five actions
by which an actor can get rid of something carried: the others are inserting
(into a container), putting (onto a supporter), giving (to someone else) and
eating. Dropping means dropping onto the actor's current floor, which is
usually the floor of a room - but might be the inside of a box if the actor
is also inside that box, and so on.
The can't drop clothes being worn rule silently tries the taking off action
on any clothing being dropped: unlisting this rule removes both this behaviour
and also the requirement that clothes cannot simply be dropped.
