+\* This is Heidi's definition of GenerateO moved out of pbft. However, Apalache
+\* does not support  (mins+1)..maxs  when mins and maxs are non-constant.
+\* Moreover, Apalache does not support re-defining this non-zero arity operator,
+\* which is why the more complex definition is now in pbft and the simpler one
+\* below.

 \* Castro & Liskov S4.4: 
     \* When the primary p of view v+1 receives 2f valid view-change messages for view v+1 from other replicas, it multicasts a (NEW-VIEW,v+1,V,O) message to all other replicas, where V is a set containing the valid view-change messages received by the primary plus the view-change message for v+1 the primary sent (or would have sent), and is a set of pre-prepare messages (without the piggybacked request).
