Good question.  That was the second point in replying to Eric which you replied 
to.

2. Inconvenience, if you want to maintain a set of inhomogeneous states.
I can do

  'State1A State1B State1C' =. (State1A;State1B;State1C) Verb Control
  'State2A State2B State2C' =. (State2A;State2B;State2C) Verb Control

And they have to be separated, because there are other verbs

   'State1A State1C' =. (State1A;State1C) VerbOther Control;State1B

Apart from copying/boxing, there are too many names to keep track of.
I would rather do

  Verb_1_ Control
  Verb_2_ Control

Or rather
   Verb__ONE Control
   Verb__TWO Control
   VerbOther__ONE Control
