1st option: whole coordination "store or deliver to the secretary" takes "the farm marketing excess", no GAPs 2nd option: GAP in each coordinate (in tension with how we've been treating VP coordination)

"we don't need a gap if we know that the object would be the immediate next sister to the head of each coordinate"

TODO: write up as a CGELBank repo issue.

but "if you have a GAP in one coordinate you need a GAP in the other"
