Caller's Arguments:

It certainly looks like e was trying to, but the CFJ
submission starts with an unmatched opening brace, making it unclear
where, exactly, the CFJ ends. Is there an actual CFJ there, or does the
ambiguity make it invalid?

Judge G.'s Arguments:

It's very nice when a CFJ is a statement that can be answered or judged.  
R591 implies that it should be so.  So while it's no longer an explicit 
part of the Rules, a good standard to set might follow R1563/1: "a 
single clearly-labeled Statement which must be able to be determined by 
the means of logical reasoning" (see CFJ 1266).

I won't claim that I can be so strict as to say that every CFJ statement 
must be shown to yield to logical reasoning before being accepted as a 
CFJ (that would launch a round of meta-CFJs on alleged CFJs). But 
yielding to basic, fundamental grammar would be nice.  In any case, the 
uncertainty of statement termination noted by the caller fails any of 
"clearly-labeled" or even "labeled".  FALSE.
