    Shalom,

    I agree, the first one should be "item". I like "item" for the second one as
    well.

    > - In 12.4.2, last para., "The same can be said of instance arrays and loop
    > generates": please explain. Maybe not in the text, but for me.

    My bad. You can't do it with instance arrays since the range can never be
    zero-length. But you can create recursion with for-generates:

    module top;
      recurse #(2) u1();
    endmodule

    module recurse;
      parameter p = 0;
      genvar i;

      for (i = 0; i < (p==0?0:1); i = i+1) begin:g
        recurse #(p-1) u2();
      end

    endmodule
