I seem to remember Emma Smith making the same argument with her polygamist religion starter husband, Joseph Smith. If I recall correctly Joseph then had a “revelation” that told him while he could have multiple wives, his wife Emma [mentioned by name], could not have multiple husbands. It made me laugh.
Joseph Smith has all kinds wacky zany stories that provide excellent proof that his claims are all totally 100% legit
I like the one where he “translated” some “ancient texts” but his wife didn’t believe him so she threw away the “translations” and told him to do it again, if he was the real deal he’d translate it exactly the same way no problem. But God was upset at this trial so he changed the translation, making poor Joseph Smith redo it with the new and thus slightly different translation.
This of course proves that there was no way at all Joey could’ve made everything up
Maybe other Emma Smiths did exactly that, which is why we never hear from them. When they stop the insanity before it spreads, there is no story to be told.

Emma Smith smart smart smart.
Except never poisoning her husband. Way to drop the ball there Emma.

When you get the chance, you poison the top mormon. Rule of life.
