The description of the predicate in steps for simple types
says that the predicate is:
If {variety} is union and the [name] is empty, the pair
{position, n} where n is the position of the simple type
definition among {member type definitions}
but I think the text needs to distinguish between the {variety}
of the simple type being selected in the step and that of its
parent, if any.
A top-level simple type which happens to be a union does not
need a numeric predicate; its name will sufficiently identify
it. It is only an anonymous simple type defined within a
union that needs a number.
Or am I wrong?
