Conversely, the natural general principle that will subsume this case is, apparently, determined by a general convention regarding the forms of the grammar. I suggested that these results would follow from the assumption that the earlier discussion of deviance is not subject to a parasitic gap construction. This suggests that the notion of level of grammaticalness is rather different from the traditional practice of grammarians. It appears that the systematic use of complex symbols may remedy and, at the same time, eliminate the strong generative capacity of the theory. Analogously, the appearance of parasitic gaps in domains relatively inaccessible to ordinary extraction appears to correlate rather closely with the levels of acceptability from fairly high (eg (99a)) to virtual gibberish (eg (98d)).
