That is true, but I am still confused that no paragraph breaking takes
place in this case. Also, when I use the @Wide command inside the
@Lorem definition or around its invocation, It breaks as expected.
However, when I use @Wide around @Lorem @Lorem, I get the same error
as without using @Wide. What is the rule here that decides when to
break lines in the contents of the @Lorem definition?
