rehonor question

L5R CCG Rules board, 8 November 2007

A topic from AEG's L5R CCG Rules forum, copied for Oracle of the Void from a copy of the forum saved in October 2015, so pages it didn't save are missing. Players' names are left out; the rules officials are named. Rulings are as they stood on these dates; later rulings, the rulebooks and the Rules Archive may differ.

page 45 rules text When dishonorable Personalities are involved in gaining one or more points of Honor, the Honor gain is negated and they are rehonored (restored to honorable status).

"(restoring to honorable status)" this suggests that the dishonor status was negated. So rehonoring the action a negation of dishonor?

I don't understand the question.
