<p>I need clarification on a rule in Power Grid Deluxe</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>If, at any time during the game, there is a power plant in the current market with a number equal to or lower than the number
  of cities any player has, immediately remove it from the game and replace it with a new power plant from the power plant
  stack. It is also possible that newly drawn power plants must be immediately discarded and a new card drawn. As usual,
  rearrange the power plants in ascending order. This rule does not affect power plants owned by players.</p>
</blockquote>

<p>If I understand correctly, let's say I got 5 cities. Therefore all power plant from the power market and the deck that can power 5 cities or less will be discard? By that matter when the game enter in step 2 where a player has more than 6 cities, there is not power plant left to be bought? </p>
