Actually, we only require the function selector to be surjective; that is,
that any term in F occurs in function position in some term in O. We do not
require that the O-sequence selector be surjective; that is, there may be
sequences of terms in O that do not appear in object position sequence.
BTW, note that the only constraint on R is that it be a subset of terms in
O.
