yes i can certainly appreciate that there might be triareas rather
than exact tripoints
tho it might be even more fun in those cases
to try to get a precise fix on the triangle of uncertainty

i have also been thinking that because kokkina has no green line but
only a buffer zone
the green line may be less definitive of reality somehow than the
neutral zone

but be that as it may
it seems to me the 4 primary tripoints we have previously identified
do continue to hold up
even if they should melt down a little into triareas
& even if they should also get splayed a bit farther apart
in the event that the green line fell outside the buffer zone at the
sba conjunctions

for we dont know those 2 critical details yet do we

but i think the same 4 old tripoints or triareas where the buffers
meet the sba are probably still the primary ones in reality
approximately anyway

any other views
