[DCRM-L] 5b3.2

[Deborah J. Leslie]

Doesn't the second example in 5B3.2. need a "but?" It didn't have one in
DCRB, but it follows the same pattern for alternative examples not
within the scope of the rule in question. 
Original
5B3.2. Consider that numbered sequences include unnumbered pages or
leaves falling logically within the sequence, counting back from the
recorded number 
to 1.
		[2], 40 p.
				(Comment: Pages are numbered 3-40 with
four unnumbered pages at the beginning)
	[2], 5-40 p.
				(Comment: Pages are numbered 5-40 with
two unnumbered pages at the beginning; there is no evidence of copy
imperfection)

Proposed
5B3.2. Consider numbered sequences to include unnumbered pages or leaves
falling logically within the sequence, counting back from the recorded
number 
to 1. [wording change suggested by Carol Fink] 
		[2], 40 p.
				(Comment: Pages are numbered 3-40 with
four unnumbered pages at the beginning)
but	[2], 5-40 p.
				(Comment: Pages are numbered 5-40 with
two unnumbered pages at the beginning; there is no evidence of copy
imperfection)
Thoughts?
