Why are you so sad ? this was not in the purpose to pretend there is a
"problem" (except that I suspected an error). I was just curious
beceause I used to read that Ada and Pascal are exemples of unambigous
grammar.

As well, about LR(1), this was not to use it as a reference of
readibility, beceause the humain view of a text is not based on a
LR(1) analisys. A grammart bay be LR(1) while not redable, or the
opposite.

I was just curious and surprised, that's all.

Another exemple I've just came into :
