You're right, of course. Let me try again: It is reasonable to expect
that reccurrences are described by the same predicate applied to the
same referents. Things that are not part of the predicate will in general
vary, but the variation in the time is what orders the recurrences. (You
need some order to make sense of the x3 of krefu.) You could say that
every event is a recurrence of every other event, but that is excessively
& pointlessly unrestrictive. I'm not proposing any strict rule, just
saying what I would consider to be a recurrence.
