[DGD] Reasonable Tick Counts?

[Shentino]

Yeah, good quote.  Anything's better than zero.

Actually, having 1 real token, plus a nomatch, might be MORE efficient
than two explicit tokens.  With nomatch, all the parser needs to try
is the first one, and if it doesn't work, it can default to nomatch by
process of elimination...whereas with TWO token rules, it has to try
them both, and if it doesn't match either it bombs out with a runtime
error.

...my two cents.
