The Report's description of the type system is not a proper
specification.
That is a flaw, but it is not one I can fix for the Revised H98 Report.

If, however, you can suggest some specific sentences that would help
to eliminate confusion, then please do suggest them.

Incidentally, Karl-Filip Faxen is working on a formal static semantics
for
Haskell.
