 **Note:** This approach cannot encode situations where some combinations of feature values are plausible and some are not! For instance, if positions [2] and [3] in a tag encode gender and number, respectively, and if ''NNQW'' means a logical disjunction of the tags ''NNFS'' and ''NNNP'', then you cannot encode the situation in DZ Interset precisely. If you do not want to discard either ''NNFS'' or ''NNNP'' (by storing the other only), you can say that gender = ''F'' or ''N'' and number = ''S'' or ''P'' but by that you have also introduced ''NNFP'' and ''NNNS'' as possibilities. The approach may be revised in future.

+If an array is a permitted value, all member values are permitted.
+If an array is checked, all member values must be permitted in order for the array to be permitted. Otherwise, the array is pruned and the replacement is a subarray where only permitted values are kept. If no member values are permitted (hence the pruned subarray would be empty), the replacement is a single value, the highest-priority replacement of the first element of the array. If the original array was empty (which should never happen but we ought to be careful anyway), the single empty value is checked and possibly replaced.
