Actually, Martin brings up a very good example case that SHOULD be included in the proposals examples...besides custom qualitative values like the PPP ratio over GDP. A measurement's value (at another given measurement's value that it was obtained at / through) The (quantity of Nitrogen) in a shark at (a given depth in an ocean) AND at a (that particular ocean's temperature at that depth). The (temperature of surrounding Air) at a (given altitude on Mount Everest). Or some such.
