Use subjunctive:

... as if it is ... => ... as if it were ...
Various editorial suggestions from T. Taft.
I found the use of "Enclosing" as a type name confusing, and so
suggested replaceing "Enclosing" with "Device" and then using
"Encloser" rather than "Instance" as the discriminant name.

I also think the discussion of immutably limited, aliasedness, etc.,
is probably more than necessary, and was a bit imprecise in various
ways.  I have made some fixes, but I think you could probably
simplify the whole discussion without losing much.
