About half a century ago I thought of splicing little, plain, and alliance surprise minor, easily done by splitting leads of a single method by adjusting places which include the treble. The resulting course would typically be one plain lead, two alliance leads,
and two little. At the time I could find no reference to it having being done before. The only problem was not having a capable band.</div>

If one should do this nowadays, under the current decisions, would the shortened or lengthened lead have the same name as its parent, as it might easily be an already-named other method, for an absurd example Bastow could easily be a possibility if the lengthening/shortening
was to occur while the treble was in 12. </div>
