Only the stuff in KGT, which involves substituting different words for
the *law'* and *puS,* is called wordplay by Okrand; all the stuff from
the /HolQeD/ article about /as Q as/, /not more Q than,/ and
/differently Q than/ is presented as ordinary grammar.

<div>It's a form of wordplay, which means it's appropriate
whenever wordplay is appropriate. You probably shouldn't do it
too often, or when there's the opportunity for confusion, or at
a very formal occasion, or in a situation where beginners are
learning.</div>
