Not very convincing as I find this already horrible code.
Anyway bare decorations don't make much sense. I would say that
they are purely algorithmical objects (i.e. something that could
be used in an algorithm, but with no clear meaning without this
context). Compare to bare intervals, which are true mathematical
objects.
