The constructs have a well defined meaning. The argument to ban them is purely around limiting allowable syntactic style. People are very unlikely to actually use this nesting except through the abstraction of a typealias which is a very valid use case. The complexity of the rules does not appear to provide any tangible benefit.</div></blockquote></div></div> <div><br></div>Which rule(s) do you refer to exactly?<div><br> <div id="bloop_sign_1463757384681544960" class="bloop_sign"><div style="font-family:helvetica,arial;font-size:13px">-- <br>Adrian Zubarev<br>Sent with Airmail</div></div> <br><p class="airmail_on">Am 20.
