Yes, but what does one input give you? Primes or _a_ prime? And even with
your rank-1 input, the data is being taken as 0-cells, or singular inputs.
Thus, as I said originally, the input to p: is singular and the output is
singular.
Contrast that with i.
One singular input returns pluralistic output:
i. 5
0 1 2 3 4
