The repeated "many folding", which would be better visualized as tendition, exponentiation ("tendaddition") pattern also breaks with fractions & at the most basic negative numbers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvmuCPvRoWQ&t=922s Also: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28524792 "log base" would be better named untendaddition similarly division - does not necessary "separate" - untendition & unaddition - does not "draw under". Etymologos to use "given" symbols over the datum names.


Further, the pattern matched "grouping" definitions (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25278021) names have a better correspondence to the Greek scheme: diation, triation, tetration... while the "Group theory" definitions scheme lending to various geometries (hypercomplex: complex::hyperbolic, split-complex::elliptic, dual::parabolic) would match some other naming scheme.
