May be. But then a definition of fruitfullness is missing.

Walter once changed the language because a change of a "." to a "," or 
vice versa might change an actual parameter list from
|  (1,2.3)
to
|  (1,2,3)

That is a distance of zero for characters and token.

The problem presented here shows distances of about twenty characters 
or four token.

Does fruitfullness reach up to hundred characters or ten tokens? Please 
specify the upper bound.
