At least three kinds of intransitive verbs?

I find three different types of content blurred together as "intransitive verbs":

Persistent attributes should be written as adjectives: "It is raining" as
[place]_/raining

Changes in persistent attributes should be written using the becoming operator. "He fell asleep" as
He::He_/sleep

Implicit transitive verbs should be written explicitly: "Jane coughed" as
Jane(made)->cough
