Speaking as a hardliner, I like this. Subscripted no'a panders to the hardliners and grungey vo'a panders to the naturalists.

Could this suggest future ways of resolving hardliner vs naturalist debates?
i.e. have alternate bits of grammar, one version of which panders to one constituency and the other version of which panders to the other constituency?
