I certainly wouldn’t want it to be required to fail! But I do see value in having a user option to do so. I have the little grammar for parsing debug commands that I spoke about a couple of weeks ago. If I updated that and accidentally left it ambiguous, I’d rather have the parse fail than get one random parse. (Per Patterson’s observations about constructing a “weird machine”.)
Be seeing you,
norm
