Good morning Rainer,

Thanks for the explanation, that makes sense.

Although, I do wonder if no X or Y are given, should L still be valid?

I will take a look at the docs later and see what I can do and submit a PR
to make it a bit more clear (at least for G74 and G84) for future “me’s”
 :)

Thanks again,
Greg
