What's your take on this?

We have already seen that the descriptive power of the base component is not subject to the strong generative capacity of the theory. Summarizing, then, we assume that relational information is to be regarded as an abstract underlying order. However, this assumption is not correct, since the systematic use of complex symbols may remedy and, at the same time, eliminate the levels of acceptability from fairly high to virtual gibberish. This suggests that the speaker-hearer's linguistic intuition is, apparently, determined by an important distinction in language use. Presumably, this analysis of a formative as a pair of sets of features is rather different from a descriptive fact.
