OK, I used 5.3.0... I will definitely use this feature in future...
Thanks for the clarifications Andrea & Paolo!

In the latest version (the one just released), positions that require three parameters can be specified either as "Si 8c x y z" or as "Si x y z". Moreover, a bug was fixed.

    Positions that require three coordinates to be specified do not
    require
    any label. You do not need to modify the code, just omit the 8d label.
