Two replies said that the top example was 'confusing'. Could someone say
what is confusing about it? Aside from it being unusual, after looking at it
is there any chance of someone actually misunderstanding the intent?
Yes, absolutely!! If I came across it I would ASSUME that the
reversal of first and second endings was a typo. That is MUCH more
probable than assuming that you really meant it, if I even bothered
to flick my eyes up to the numbers in the first place. It would
require stopping the rehearsal and discussing it at some length. It
is so totally unusual as to be not just confusing but
incomprehensible!
Bill Duncan in his Finale Productivity book said: "Be impossible to
misunderstand". I live by this prase when I am doing parts.
