I think it's potentially dangerous to implement a method where the absence of one thing implies another (i.e. reactivating an order by sending a cancel/replace w/o the suspend instruction).

Yes, this is what I meant. I cut and pasted without checking for accuracy. Sorry.
> Each of the ExecInst values is generally a boolean. An order is All or None or it isn't. It is Not Held or it isn't, Similarly, it is Suspended or it isn't. I see no reason to create an Unsuspend ExecInst unless we create an Un-All or None, an Un-Not Held, etc.
