[pandorabots-general] Set Predicates

Below is the Alice AAA Predicates.aiml file.
Observation: The Set Predicates category which runs on
initialization has fewer Predicates than the Get Predicates
category.
1) Wouldn't it make more sense for ALL bot and user predicates
used in the AIML code to be set upon initialization to their
default values?
2) Is what is observed below this way because Alice AAA is
written for Pandorabots /ProgramZ and Pandorabots has a different
interface for the initialization of the initial bot Predicates?
3) Does anyone know which interpreters fire the Set
Predicates category upon start up and which do not?
4) Is this an AIML 1.0.1 standard that Predicates are so treated
upon loading?
4) As an applied best practice, would it not make sense
when writing AIML to always use <condition> tags to make sure the
bot "knows" the variable it is about to use in its reply (for
those where the variable needs to be set) is in fact contextually
correct in order that it doesn't produce a bad answer?
"No mystery is so well served as that solved." (I just made that
up).
