So is it ... almost debug output for the devs?
But you do say 'to write up a rule describing the structure'.
Which I interpret as 'helping' to write better rules?

For me (as I said, non-grammarian) I find it very hard
to use due to the complexity of the analysis - but I can't think
of a better way, so I'll shut up!
