Andrew Morgan was against that.  What if we changed

pE' = pP' & (fE | pA)

to

	if (pA)
		pE' = pP' & fE
	else
		pE' = pP'

Same problem as before. The ambient bits will not be set in pE'.

And what if I weren't scatterbrained and we did 

 	if (pA)
 		pE' = pP'
 	else
 		pE' = pP' & fE

All pP' bits would be set in pE'.
