Do you recognize this? You read something and then you think something else because of that, and this Something is so banal, so self-evident, so obvious – and then you want to quote the relevant standard work (book, article, ISO standard), but you can’t find anything? Has this self-evident fact really never been written down before?

Kennt Ihr das? Ihr lest etwas, und denkt etwas anderes dazu, und dieses etwas ist so banal, so selbstverständlich, so offensichtlich – und dann wollt Ihr dazu das relevante Standardwerk (Buch, Aufsatz, ISO-Norm) zitieren, aber ihr findet nichts?

I just saw a really interesting paper by Scott Nelson and Jeffrey Heinz (Nelson and Heinz 2025) that proposes a model of phonology and phonetics as complex function application that maintains a discrete phonology while also alowing for things like incomplete neutralization.
