Dave, I assume it was obvious that when you design your reduction
semantics that you may use a syntax that differs from the programmer's
syntax. I find this less than ideal, and as Riccardo says, some
theorems become difficult to prove and the semantics is usually
difficult to manage. For such systems, it is almost always the case
that :values: isn't a subset of the expressions in the programmer's
syntax.
