Re: Motion on ``discontinuous'' decoration bit



John, P1788,

Attached is a paper that I think is relevant to this discussion. In
particular, please see section 5.2 "Relation to the Addition of Interval
Hulls".

This seems to further suggest non-IEPF's in general needn't be "singled out"
or "forbidden", particularly with the currently-proposed Level 1 definition of continuity (which appears to be the same as D-continuity in the attached paper).

Being stubborn, I persist in thinking that it would be useful IF it were
possible to specify a function as being explicitly "an interval
extension of a point function" so it contains NO intersection and union
operations. Let's call such an f an IEPF.
If we adopt something like that, what ARE intersect(), union(), hull()?
They exist, can be used in any code that isn't an IEPF, and are handled by
Nate's recipe. But they are forbidden (by "some means" TBD) to appear in
an IEPF.
