You almost certainly don't want such rigid limits, and it's not how CG
thinking ever goes.
What you probably want is nearest neighbor 0* search, with a suitable
Barrier to make sure it doesn't search too far. Similarly with going only
left or right: 1* and -1* with a Barrier.
Also, (*/* "ver") doesn't make sense as-is, so I hope that's not a real
example. If anything, it should be (0*/* ("ver")).
