      Based on draft < 21 "proposal 1":
      For 3.8 ReferenceList:
      Remove "many statistical functions" part, convert example to note.
      Change
      Passing a reference list in all these cases should generate an error.
      to
      Passing a reference list in these cases shall generate an error.

      Additionally, based on draft22a "proposal 2":

      Change
      Passing a reference list in these cases shall generate an error.
      to
      Passing a reference list where a function does not expect one shall generate an error. Passing a reference list in array iteration context to a function expecting a scalar value shall generate an error.

      Applied "proposal 1" for draft21.

      In both cases there is a partial description of cases where passing a reference list would result in an error. In 4.9 for example, "many statistical functions," but without saying which ones.

      The language then concludes with: "Passing a reference list in all these cases should generate an error."

      Since "all these cases" have not been enumerated, I have deleted it in both instances.
