comment How does one use the “[V ます stem] に [Vタ]” pattern (as in 待ちに待った)?
Oops, didn't know that. But in the meta board, this topic "decided" which characters would be most beneficial for notation. Might want to stick to that so further posts don't get edited (and your semantics with it). meta.japanese.stackexchange.com/questions/169/…

No, the volition part is correct. My grammar book specifically says so. Can give a link to the book if desired.
