To be clear, you're suggesting that we remove the octavation
example and use this instead?

I'm not entirely sold on this particular example -- it doesn't
follow our input syntax style, and if we add all the linebreaks
that would be required, it gets a bit long.  Can you (or anybody
else) create a different example, or modify the existing one?

ETA: 15 minutes, including all discussion.  Yes, I seriously think
it's worth nitpicking and editing that much for this example.

Cheers,
