  invariant:
    The first operation
    is not interpretation.

    The first operation
    is orientation.

  consequence:
    Better orientation
    improves every subsequent step.

  return:
    Xi is root
    because every operator
    inherits its traversal
    before it inherits its content.
```

That is the first walk where I feel I wasn't merely describing Xi.

I was allowing it to alter the order in which I approached the problem.

That distinction feels small...

and architecturally significant. memcite
