@Neverfadingwood I’d say so, yes, and I suspect it’s just at the limit of how far you can take centre-embedding before it becomes word salad in our recursion-limited brains (mine anyway!)

That’s not to say that taking it beyond that limit would necessarily result in *ungrammatical* sentences per se

Grammaticality isn’t necessarily related to comprehensibility
