I would prefer the distinction for the application of corresponding metavariables.

Would it be more helpful to mention the movement of the ampersand
before SmPL disjunctions?

Can the following SmPL code variant become more attractive?

+virtual context, report, org


…

How do you think about the following SmPL code variant?

+expression subE1 <= as.E1,
+           subE2 <= as.E2,
+           as.E1,
+           as.E2,
+           E3;

Please align such function parameters.

+coccilib.report.print_report(p2[0],
