I think I've already commented on this in my message on the KAI. I'm not
sure exactly what the phrase "oratio variata" is intended to mean, but I
think there's really something more than an "in-other-words" reformulation
of the PARAKALW PARASTHSAI construction, even if it IS a reformulation: to
use the phrase of one of the deconstructionists, it is a "repetition with
significant addition."
