{- NB. technically, if the RS has undergone ConjRS, it could contain both
restrictive and appositive relative clauses. Quote Sayeed p.215-216:
"When multiple relative clauses occur, this formal distinction is
maintained, since in the only context both can occur, on nouns with
determiners, restrictives are joined by ee while appositives employ oo."
In practice, we don't care--it's impossible to know on the RGL level
which RS are restrictive and which appositive, as it is semantic.
