Say "not (directly) live" rather than "never live" #47

Closed pnkfelix closed 7 years ago

Attempt to clarify statement about 'foo and 'bar being "never live."

In particular, on first reading, it seemed contradictory to say at one point that 'foo and 'bar are "never live", and then subsequent analyses do determine that they are live; or at least that they outlive something else that is live (which, in my book, would usually be interpreted to mean "live").
