    TH: >I'm wondering: are there examples of individual texts where metegs on
    hataf
    vowels vary in position? For instance, in BHS, which clearly uses a medial
    meteg, does the meteg also appear at times on the right or the left of a
    hataf vowel?

    There are examples of all 3 placements for meteg, as used in the BHS in
    Peter Constable's Proposal to Encode Alternative Characters for Biblical
    Hebrew. See
