I guess my post answered a slightly different question from "which verbs are 
have rank _1"?  Most of the primitives mentioned
wouldn't work if they were truly "_1  (except ,.).   

The reason is most primitives mentioned are concerned with treating their 
input(s) as a list of its items (so they apply to the list
in toto, not to individual items).  I guess the question they answer is "what 
good is the concept of items?".
