- Description:
> However, the grammar may not be systematic enough (a comment that Paolo made).
> Also, for instance, it forces us to have t or - for time in generation.
Treating the "positional" optional arguments in the all-or-nothing way (which wasDerivedFrom and others already do) would fix this, while allowing short forms of wasGeneratedBy and friends. Right now, they are treated in an "all-or-all" way that seems incompatible with many examples
