wonderful
thanx peter
that does give me the greater part of what i was looking for
yet it also represents a setback in classifying & naming this point
inasmuch as our erstwhile nose3 hopeful is now looking more like a
hopelessly split level nose4

for only with great good luck may it still pan out as nose4vvwwxxyyzz
a weird international conjunction of 5 submunicipal entities if they
all exist
actually breaking down into nose2osvg3arhauu4vvwwxxyyzz
with uu thru zz representing unknown or possibly even nonexistent
municipal or submunicipal entities
but even this analysis is still mostly wishful thinking
especially the part involving the internal swedish boundary of
unknown level reported by arif in message 3757 in the swedish source
i still cant find

what a mess
& it will probably remain so without a lot more detailed digging than
we can even hope to do at this point

now if there were as fine a swedish zoomable map as your norwegian one
we might at least be able to confirm that we have something quintifold
or at least a solid tertiary quadripoint with a split section

but a solid quaternary quintipoint would still be way beyond that

m

also on another front
since we are counting our quintipoints before they hatch as well as
after
can anyone say positively that the ghost quinti at bedenl subsuming
moresnet & eupen malmedy doesnt still survive at the submunicipal
level
