Interesting points. I would argue that it can't be perjury if you swore your oath before you knew about nullification.

    Simple. If ever questioned after by a judge:

    "When asked if I knew about jury nullification, you must understand. I personally believe the only way to know something is to experience it firsthand. And so before, I did not know about jury nullification. Now, NOW your honor. NOW I know about jury nullification."

    I agree!

    Telling others to not uphold the law can probably get you in trouble too so it would be hard to convince others. It could work (both ways) if everyone is told after the oath, and they all individually decide to do it.
