It is deeply confusing; is f(1,3, 4,6) a call with two or four arguments? I would formally object to a spec written this way, but we are not going to require the editor to mark every number as subject to FO. The point is that it is likely we will get FOs that are not about single, or a few, pieces of text, but about principles and styles that are spread all across it, so a MUST is not sustainable for every case, and in some cases, ridiculous amounts of work. Makes sense to me. I adjusted the proposal. Philippe
