Some thoughts on English language
Perhaps "attribute" could be more explicitly defined? ...as something
like, 'a characteristic [ given to | assigned to | applied to | associated
with | defining a ] parameter (or a parameter's utility?)'
You might look at the entire `declare' description for the full treatment
of the term "attributes" and how variables get them.
