That will probably be of more use than st3 when complaining to your friends about how a stupidly designed staircase made you stub your toe.

Every <= i>terserspaji must be an unexpected stepping, not a surprised stepper, bec= ause every terserspaji is a spaji and every spaji is a surprising/startling/unexpected event/action, and terserti are neither events/actions nor spaji.=C2=A0 Therefore, regardless of whether the arguments are mentioned in the order in which you intended their places to be (which I cannot ascertain because "x1" and "x2" are excluded), your place s= tructure is flawed.

I

x1=3Ds= p1 is an event/action of x2=3Dsp2 unexpectedly stepping off stairs/stairway/steps x3=3Dst2, instead of onto step x4=3Dst3, or ont= o step x3=3Dst4, instead of off stairs/stairway/steps x3=3Dst2

Interesting, a bit of {cadzu} is creeping in there... Yes, t= his is a torturedly-implicit abstraction indeed. But, since I've sent t= his word out there already, I'll just go right ahead and hit Send.
