Inlining primary_expression leads to in-factoring at every other rule. The inlining of the other rules is straight-forward and gives us
primary_no_array_creation_expression
: literal
| simple_name
| parenthesized_expression
| array_creation_expression DOT IDENTIFIER type_argument_list?
| primary_no_array_creation_expression DOT IDENTIFIER type_argument_list?
| predefined_type DOT IDENTIFIER type_argument_list?
| qualified_alias_member DOT IDENTIFIER type_argument_list?
| array_creation_expression OPEN_PARENS argument_list? CLOSE_PARENS
| primary_no_array_creation_expression OPEN_PARENS argument_list? CLOSE_PARENS
| primary_no_array_creation_expression OPEN_BRACKET expression_list CLOSE_BRACKET
| this_access
| base_access
| array_creation_expression OP_INC
| primary_no_array_creation_expression OP_INC
| array_creation_expression OP_DEC
| primary_no_array_creation_expression OP_DEC
| object_creation_expression
| delegate_creation_expression
| anonymous_object_creation_expression
| typeof_expression
| checked_expression
| unchecked_expression
| default_value_expression
| anonymous_method_expression
| sizeof_expression
| array_creation_expression OP_PTR IDENTIFIER
| primary_no_array_creation_expression OP_PTR IDENTIFIER
| primary_no_array_creation_expression OPEN_BRACKET expression CLOSE_BRACKET
;
After SLRR we get
primary_no_array_creation_expression
: (literal
| simple_name
| predefined_type DOT IDENTIFIER type_argument_list?
| qualified_alias_member DOT IDENTIFIER type_argument_list?
| this_access
| base_access
| array_creation_expression OPEN_PARENS argument_list? CLOSE_PARENS
| array_creation_expression DOT IDENTIFIER type_argument_list?
| array_creation_expression OP_INC
| array_creation_expression OP_DEC
| array_creation_expression OP_PTR IDENTIFIER
| object_creation_expression
| delegate_creation_expression
| anonymous_object_creation_expression
| parenthesized_expression
| typeof_expression
| sizeof_expression
| default_value_expression
| anonymous_method_expression
| checked_expression
| unchecked_expression
) (DOT IDENTIFIER type_argument_list?
| OPEN_PARENS argument_list? CLOSE_PARENS
| OP_INC
| OP_DEC
| OP_PTR IDENTIFIER
| OPEN_BRACKET (expression_list | expression) CLOSE_BRACKET
)*
;
Since this doesn't show any prospect of an ability to simplify, so we go on with the next rule.
