+"adam", you may say, "why are there both translations and command alterations?"<br />
+translations are like.. if someone says "addicting", you can safely guess that they don't know they should be saying "addictive".<br />
+so if you say "this game is addicting", that comes in, we just pretend you said "this game is addictive".<br />
+Command alterations, I have to acknowledge that you *did* say !freedomunits, but I'm changing my behavior and not converting. <br />
+I guess theoretically you could "translate" freedomunits to nothing, then freeerdumberunits to freedomunits? but if we're doing that it becomes necessary to care about order, and get that right.<br />
+so let's say, "translations" are "i'll pretend you said", and "command alterations" are "i'll pretend I expected".
