Section 3.8 says:
[foo bar] is equivalent to *1(foo bar).
It should say:
[foo bar] is equivalent to *1(foo/bar).
Notes:
--VERIFIER NOTES--
It seems that the reporter misunderstands what "[foo bar]"
means. It means that "foo bar" (the two tokens together, as a unit)
is optional. It is not suggesting an alternative of "foo" or "bar".
