Just to clarify the dictionary construction process: let's think about
dictionaries not as obligations imposed on us; instead, let's think that
they give new *possibilities* to us -- possibilities do describe and
exchange data.

Which means that it is better to have slightly more data items than
slightly less (as Daniel also remarked).

The fact that a data item is in a dictionary does not mean that anybody
is *obliged* to provide it. It merely means that it is *possible* to
provide it, and those who agree with the definitions in the dictionary
will understand what it means.

Regards,
Saulius
