Rolf, I do not attempt to prove that ALL cases of WAYYIQTOL necessarily advance the R-time, because according to my arguments yesterday, which you chose not to answer, a distinction can be semantically significant without applying in 100% of cases. I note this partly by reference to a similar Azerbaijani construction which is usually but not always sequential, and in certain contexts contrasts semantically with an alternative non-sequential construction. Nevertheless, I consider that you have been too hasty in listing the following WAYYIQTOLs as non-sequential.
