Yes, the *initial* concern was over the relative order of octave marks and durations. My *current* concern is that if it's possible for people to get confused over c4' then surely they could also get confused over c'\mf4 If so, there's two options: 1) give a general explanation of pitch-dur-other. In addition to that order, explain that the order of "other" doesn't matter. 2) give an explanation of pitch-dur, then later on explain pitch-dur-other (or maybe "note-other", or something like that) I thought that #1 would be best, but if you'd rather go with #2, I have no objection.
