    (docstring) do s/predicate function/predicate/g, s/specified/formed/g
    
    Re 1: Lots of hits in *.texi for simply "predicate" (sans "function").
    
    Re 2: It feels weird to say a pattern "specifies" a predicate.
    So, "formed" is shorter, and plausibly encapsulates
    "constructed via expansion from specification".
