Sorry, I left out some necessary details.
'down-ness' and 'up-ness' are just relative TD E/I 'momentary'
directionality, in this exercize, artificially mapped in 2-D because
that's how the data were recorded.
It's not 'illegal' Maths. It's just some of how Maths actually
happens within nervous systems.
