Why aren't you answering my question?

Do auras attach before entering the battlefield?



No, but you choose what it will attach to before it does.
 


Both things happen as they enter the battlefield, so how can it happen at different times?

Enigma is correct. You cannot choose to enchant any permanent entering at the same time as the Aura.


I know. My question is "why?" I'm hoping for something better than "a ruling says so".

because "as it enters the battlefield" means it is not yet on the battlefield

This is the wrong forum for that.

So you're saying the aura attaches before it enters the battlefield?

If you think there is a hole in the rules, please raise the issue at RT&T.

You choose what it's attached to before it enters the battlefield, the same way for a clone you choose what it is copying before it enters the battlefield.  "entering the battlefiend" means it's not on the battlefield yet, so you choose what it would attach itself too in the zone it's moving from, in this case the choice is made when it's still in the players hand.

So you must think that auras attach at some time other than "as they enter the battlefield."
