another correction
effectively reversing the previous correction
& everything else previously guessed as well

for as i just realized
the pededze flows not north but south from eelvru

hahahahaha

therefore
right bank was truly wrong
& west was right in the first place

& most importantly
there is no longer any good reason to suppose the tripoint lies
east of the pededze
assuming the map depiction has been correctly explained away
which i am now again willing to assume

& luckily
2 wrongs
if perfectly wrong
meaning 180 degrees wrong
do make a right
