so buttressed both by legal precedent & practical reality we may say that
jungholz is a true enclave & a true exclave
& not merely a pene anything
except when making some exceedingly fine & whimsical distinction
maybe we should save pene then for cases when we do get down to the
peninsular sort of narrow neck you described above
& when we are thus still penultimately shy of a true boundary cross point
i have been thinking more about the bengal boundary cross candidate too
it seems to me from all the description i have heard that it was most
probably situated originally where a survey line crossed a stream thalweg
or median line
this configuration is a most common occurrence among wet quadripoints generally
& allowing for the accretion or perhaps even avulsion in the course of the
stream that was also rumored to have occurred since the point was
established many decades ago
there is still no reason to believe the boundary cross was ever dismantled
as such
because even if the riverine determinant of the cross shifted position
& whether that sector legally migrated with the river or not
the survey transsect has most probably never budged
unless there was a new delimitation or demarcation
which would have been highly unlikely during this period of deliberate neglect
so unless you or someone can disabuse me of any of my admittedly
presumptive reasoning here
i am going to continue to believe in the probability that this is not just
a twin cross but a multi cross world
