I think this is the 5th second. But I think that under A.3.4 this comes
too late.

    4. No new ballot options may be proposed, no ballot options may be
       amended, and no proposers or sponsors may withdraw if less than 24
       hours remain in the discussion period, unless this action
       successfully extends the discussion period under §A.1.4 by at least
       24 additional hours.

My interpretation of proposed there is proposed + sponsored.

I don't think adding a new option falls under:

    6. The Project Secretary may make an exception to §A.3.4 and accept
       changes to the ballot after they are no longer allowed, provided
       that this is done at least 24 hours prior to the issuance of a call
       for a vote. All other requirements for making a change to the
       ballot must still be met. This is expected to be rare and should
       only be done if the Project Secretary believes it would be harmful
       to the best interests of the project for the change to not be made.

I forgot about this.
