Mark,

My objection to triagonal is not that it is based on confusion, but that
it invites confusion. The fact that it invites confusion does diminish it
in my regard. My main point is that there are two alternate methods of
describing piece movement, and triagonal does not fit neatly with either
method. Instead of using this confusing term, we should use terms that
clearly identify one method or the other.
