I think so.
orthogonal
adj. [from mathematics] Mutually independent; well
separated; sometimes, irrelevant to.
If that's the implied meaning.
E.g.
I read braille.
You read print,.
Presentational form varies.
(data identical, just needs a transform).
If the 'final form' varies, then the supplier (US Gov) can't store just the
single
triple? It must store exceptions too, e.g. my braille presentational form,
content and context.
Does that make sense?
