Good, thanks.
But am I wrong in expecting Watson to 'link' to  "Writer = RECORD"  ?

I do:
 select Texts.
 execute Watson.ShowDef  ^
 search for "Replace"
 'hotLinkBlue'  "Buffer"
 which has a dead end at "BufDesc".

It might be interesting/valuable to have a formal definition/description
of Watson ?
