Russell, William M. – Linguistics, 1975
The linguist does not usually describe grammatical structures of stylized sentences because there are none well-formed on the surface.

Sanders, Gerald A. – Linguistics, 1977
An examination of the predicates "optional" and "obligatory" is made that suggests that they are far more appropriately viewed as derived rather than primitive notions, whose appropriate attributions follow in all cases from independent linguistic facts and principles of a much more general and more generally significant character.
