   Is it always the case that valid episystems derive production rules for   
   deductions for a system? Ie, a derivation in a meta-system generated by   
   applying an episystem to a system tells us how to generate a deduction   
   for the base-system?   
      
   It kind of looks that way to me so far and that I should expect nothing   
   more than that from them.
