Abstract A steering fragment of an instruction sequence consists of a sequence of steering instructions. These are decision points involving the check of a propositional statement in sequential logic. The question is addressed why composed propositional statements occur in steering fragments given the fact that a straightforward transformation allows their elimination. A survey is provided of constraints that may be implicitly assumed when composed propositional statements occur in a meaningful instruction sequence.
