     In the last sentence of its first paragraph, section 5.6.6 says --
     
         "Port connection rules require that a value receiver be
          a net or a structural net expression."
     
     Are there structural net expressions that are not nets? If not,
     we should remove "a net or" here.
     
     According to section 12.3.8,
     
         "Examination of the port connection rules described in 12.3.9
          will show that the item receiving the value through the port
          (the internal item for inputs, the external item for outputs)
          shall be a structural net expression."
     
     No "a net or".
     
     Is it also true that the external item for inouts shall be a
     structural net expression? If so, the above parenthetical remark
     in 12.3.8 should be modified to
     
         "(the internal item for inputs, the external item for outputs
          and inouts)"
