Comment #1: Split x4
Curtis W Franks (Tue Jun 21 22:39:39 2016)

The origin terbri should be separate from the frame of reference terbri
(for this word and all other direction words). The destination terbri (x2)
and the origin terbri (present x4 in one sense) create a directed line
segment such that the direction is x1, but what one calls it is entirely
determined by the basis chosen (the frame of reference, a separate sense of
present x4). Some of the issues mentioned in my commentary about fargau
(see its definition) would technically be resolvable (if not ideal in
practice) if we make this correction.

Comment #2: Re: Split x3

Oops. Every mention of "x4" should be replaced with "x3". I was thinking
"we need an x4" and therefore confused myself.
