I would actually say: Is there a point to have a prescriptive work
without ND clause? While it's quite fine for descriptive works -- and
I am sure that at some point of time we'd get one of the descriptive
grammars (at least the latest descriptive Syntax of Serbian Language,
made by the same professor) -- I am doubtful about usefulness of a
prescriptive work without ND.

Which, actually, reminds me that we definitely need a "non-free"
repository. For example, we could get that grammar to be quoted in
whole, but there is no sense to change it.

But, my initial point was: Am I missing something? Would there be any
reason why such grammar would have sense without ND clause?
