Yeah, I was just thinking the same. The rules *are* largely the same,
by design, so the text is necessarily going to be pretty similar.
But merging these sections doesn't sound like an improvement.
One thing we could easily do is not use isomorphic examples in the two
sections. For example, instead of illustrating how to spell "data" in
both forms, use "name" as the example for the identifier case.
