Would you like to add any suggestion for a possible patch message?

+virtual report, org, context, patch
Is such a SmPL code variant more succinct?
…

I suggest to reconsider the selection of the SmPL nest construct.

Can the construct “<+... … ...+>” become relevant here?
Would you like to consider any further software design consequences
around the safe application of the asterisk functionality in rules
for the semantic patch language?
