Suggestions?
Personally I think the _OOO do not belong in the specification.
If OO wants them, then there are mechanisms for them to do it as
extension function. Overall, I rather be normative and capture the
essential complexity of the problem domain. I believe this is less
complex than the complexity of the implementation domain, which has layers
of accidental complexity.
