Description
We sometimes require expressions to be "valid", and sometimes require them to be "well-formed". The former is not defined at all; the latter is defined only for complete programs. We should pick one of the two, use it consistently, and make sure it has a proper definition.
Suggestion: use "well-formed", since that's the term we already define.

Start by searching the draft for uses of "valid" and "well-formed", then inspect the existing definition of "well-formed" for complete programs. The work is done when the chosen term is used consistently for library constraints and has a proper definition.
