What is it about?
Simply examining the language form used in a text (e.g. how many prepositions or the sorts of conjunction or lexical cohesion contained) has little to say about the comprehensibility or other s=aspect of the text. Rather than starting from form it is suggested that analysts start from meanings that are important to the text and then examine the uses of forms which express those meanings.
