You have not given any of the examples I requested.

I gave the example y=1/(x intersect (x+1)), which is nonsense but
passes a Motion 27 conforming compiler necessarily with a safe result.

That function is not an extension of a real function .But as a function
IR -> IR it can be evaluated with decorated intervals
giving the expected result.

Just that is the trouble. With Motion 26, such nonsense is recognized as nonsense, while with Motion 27, this is perfectly legitinmate and yields a safe result.
