I considered it, but not for long. I can't write in the same
manner as the constitution is written -- I gelt that a transition
guide line, since it is a guide, not a set of rigid, well defined
delineation of powers and jurisdictions, required a more verbose
handling than the constitution has.
I don't think terseness is a virtue when we are trying to
define a generic set of guiding principles anyway.
