of course you are right
& a spectacular catch it is
tho any such perturbations as you describe in that particular area
would be immediately sensed & noted by our local equipoise lab
at ekalaka lake


what i should have said tho is
the multipoints presumptively continue to exist indefinitely
so long as all their constituent
state lines
continue to exist

for in the topology i am thinking of & trying to express
it is not the states that really matter
so much as it is the state lines
aha

& this realization only underscores the importance of our recent
discovery
that true multipointing is really nothing less than sexipointing



& again you will probably understand the maths better than i
but the impression i have is
no state line can be subtracted if the tristate is to survive intact
&
only if a new state line were added to the convergence would the
identity of the multipoint change
for it would then become an octapoint

is that correct


like imagine az & nm used to be one parcel
& then split apart so cleanly as to produce azconmut

which btw is pretty much what actually happened
allowing for anachronism

but anyway
as i see it now
only something as extraordinary as that would now bust this
scheme
as duly modified with your help
