Comment (by biard):

 Russ,

 I'm concerned that your proposed wording (and, to a lesser extent, Randy's
 wording) doesn't make it clear enough that this "two or more standard
 name" option is only to be used with a particular category of ancillary
 variables.  A primary variable should never have more than one, should it?

 I'm also concerned that the proposed wording can lead a reader into
 thinking that an ancillary variable must share a standard name with any
 primary variable that it has been associated with, which is not true.

 I'll try to come up with my own version for your consideration.

 Jim
