Inherently distributive predicates can further be modified by an overt distributivity operator each. This paper deals with the semantic contribution of an overt distributivity operator that is used in the sentence that is already distributive. This paper observes that both the sentence whose distributivity is determined by a covert operator and the sentence whose distributivity is determined by an overt operator can have maximality and non-maximality effects but the difference is how restricted the effects are. To reflect the contrast, this paper claims that the overt distributivity operator carries a C variable while the covert distributivity operator has a Cover variable. Both variables are contextual variables but the Cover variable is more powerful than the C variable so that it can reduce the universal force of the distributivity operator more dynamically. The claim of this paper can explain why the English maximality marker all cannot occur with each that carries a C variable, not the Cover variable.
