RBF Definitions

"What you speak of as the cubo-octahedran, I speak of as the vector equilibrium, its radial and chordal vectors being of equal magnitude and abundance.... The vector equilibrium has the virtues of having a boundary scale of 60 degrees for each of the pieces, and its spherical excess is slightly less than that of the icosahedron; ergo the distortion is mildly less than that of the icosahedron..."
