# For Method Usage, we should start by getting `Method@get Method Bindings`
# and from there determine whether the method bindings are in use for all
# of their known relationships.
#
# 1. Start with finding the relationship `Method.executed by Method Binding`.
# 2. For each method binding in the list,
# ... populate an Instance Set with references such as:
# a. Executable returning Work Data.used by Parameter Assignment
# b. Executable returning Instance Set. reference used by GRS - Get Referenced Instance Set Method
# c. Executable returning Attribute.answer used by GRA - Get Referenced Attribute Method
# ... and so on, and so forth.
#
# Obviously, this is TEDIOUS and a hassle in every way. But it might not need to be.
#
# 1. Create a method `Method @ get Method Usage Relationships (GSI)*S`.
# 2. Manually specify each and every relationship to be returned by this GSI.
# 3. Create a method `Method Binding @ find method usages across all known Method Usage Relationships (GRS)`
# 4. This GRS should loop on Method Usage Relationships, for each relationship check EBE if
# our Method Binding is `in the selection list`, and if so, yield return it.
# here's a free GUID : {743cff51-6f81-4fb9-b5ca-9d9995358ea5} ; you're welcome
