+1. Name(path)-pointing tags (multiple names in one): `@borrows`
 
 The following apply to the above sets:
 
--   Expect tags in set 1 or 2 to have a valid namepath if present
--   Prevent set 2 from being empty by setting `allowEmptyNamepaths` to `false` as these tags might have some indicative value without a path (but set 1 will always fail if empty)
--   For the special case of set 3, i.e., `@borrows <that namepath> as <this namepath>`, check that both namepaths are present and valid and ensure there is an `as ` between them.
