Hi everybody! Thank you for making me understand that Plus[x__] is the same as x__ Just a question: have the Mathematica designers ever considered excluding the multiple blank patterns (x__ and x___) from the OneIdentity action? After all, these patterns are single expressions but stand for more possible arguments.
