Evading An Explanation Of An Analysis

Fawcett (2010: 289-90):

This is not the place for a full explanation as to why the analysis in Figure 25 is as it is. (For this level of detail, see Fawcett in press.) But it may be helpful, in the task of understanding precisely how the present theory differs from the Sydney Grammar, if I comment on a couple of points.

[1] On the contrary, this is precisely the place for a full explanation as to why the analysis in Figure 25 is as it is because this publication is an exposition of the theory that underlies it.
