The three conditionals model is a deliberately simplified set of training wheels. It doesn't describe English conditionals particularly well and it's nowhere close to complete, so of course linguists don't use it. The advantage is that it gives learners some patterns they can memorize and start using right away, but advanced learners end up having to abandon it eventually. | |
