The idea
Sentences are shorter and less inverted than in any earlier band, and some modern prose fragments them deliberately. Unit two's parse is rarely needed and unit ten's attribution question is needed constantly, which is a shift in where the difficulty sits.
In practice
Easier to parse, harder to attribute.
Where people slip
The difficulty has moved.
