Definitions ==> Calls and Concepts
Track {n}
Calls are often called from starting formations other than what is specified in the definition. The starting formations in the definition is often regarded only as a suggested standard starting formation.

Do you think a Track 0 is legal from any of these starting formations?
Starting DPT
parallel 2 faced lines
parallel RH/LH waves
RH/LH columns
A tandem trade can be called from any of the above. A Track 0 has no extend, so it dosn't matter that we can't extend when starting from some of the above formations.

Even more evil: how about Track 1 from parallel waves. It would end in a 3/4 tag. Or Track 2 from RH/HL columns, ending in a tidal column! Is any of this legal (not necessarily moral)?

My 'gestalt' of the call would allow Track 0 to be called from Tandem Couples (Starting DPT or Parallel 2FL), but not from Mini-Wave Boxes (Waves or Columns). Personally, I wouldn't call it from any of those formations. I would be annoyed if a caller called Track (n) from a Mini-Wave Box formation.

As for your evil suggestions, I don't particularly care for them.
