I like your suggested outline. Jared and I constantly debated various alternate outlines. We have found that "name" almost always falls into an A or an F structure. We have also found that "heaven" almost always falls in a D structure, especially when closely-related to "earth" in the C structure. Lastly, for now, "bread" almost always falls into the E structure. So, while your outline has some level of internal consistency, I would still prefer our outline, as published. Hi Benjamin.
