Finally, comex's original This is a win announcement: can reasonably

Gratuitous: If I had intended it to apply to the entire message, I
would have put This is a win announcement: on its own line.
My standard wording is The following sentence is a win announcement,
and this sentence serves to explicitly label it as a win announcement.
Presumably, you can get away with much simpler labels, but that one
seems pretty clear, and also avoids a Henkin situation. (Is This
sentence is a win announcement. a win announcement?)
