This piece advocates pseudocoding in such a structured, formalized way it might as well be defined in BNF and the engineer should just write directly in the target language (the child of the mating of APL and PL/M?). It seems to me the benefits of using a PDL - placing concept to paper, in loose narrative if need be, and filling in details and structure as the embodiment coalesces in one's thoughts - are lost when straightjacketing this stage of the development process.
