I think the plan is to in addition to @extent as a data.word have @unit
and @quantity as a more specific version. @extent on orth and pron I
believe means something different really from how @extent is used
elsewhere. Perhaps a new attribute should be created for orth and pron?
Though I may be misunderstanding the situation, I seem to be having one
of those days.
