Re: Extensibility questions

/ "Innovimax SARL" <innovimax@gmail.com> was heard to say:

No, I understood that goal. And I appreciate it!

Right, but I can't see exactly what you're pressing on here:

I was hoping you could construct an example of something that you
think (a) is an extensibility point we didn't intend and (b) is
allowed by the three errors above.

                                        Be seeing you,
