I ran across a use for conjecture-removed today and I'm wondering if the current guidelines are sufficient.
In the following case the scribe has "spiratio passiva activa". As I read it, "passiva" is a mistake. But the scribe provides no indication so it is a conjecture.
As I read the 1.0.0 guidelines I think the following is correct.
But this sort of presumes I want my processor to leave "passiva" in the main text surrounded by square brackets [passiva] for example.
But if I didn't want this to appear, but I wanted to note its presence in the apparatus fontium.
This is closer to to the "variation-present" type which would have an empty lemma plus the @n attribute.
In fact, as it is now, the conjecture-removed type does not give us an @n attribute. Thus it would be hard to find the preceding word to use at the lemma.
At a bare minimum, I think I'd like to see the @n attribute REQUIRED on conjecture-removed types.
where conjecture-removed tells us the choice to not put in a word in this token position is a conjecture since all of the other manuscripts have a word here. One can then see rdg elements below for the options contained in the ms.
At present I think I would vote for Option B, even if the element is a bit redundant.
