Ok, let me try again. It must be my lack of proper knowledge of english language that do not make me be able to make my point.

As you need this extra local delta, JUST using the plain mapping is wrong, include errors, and can not be used.

You MUST use the generic mapping (as you name it) PLUS the specific exceptions.

And it is definitely not the case that you can do f(x) and then f'(x), i.e. f(f'(x)) but instead you need to use y(x) as the function where y(x) is as you write f(x) modified with the delta that the LOCALE defines.

If one could do f(f'(x)) then it would be easy.
