No notion of valence; can interact with any number of constraints | Many important observables have fixed valence It always makes sense to ask whether a point lies on an element | It rarely makes sense to ask whether a point lies on an observable
No notion of valence; can interact with any number of constraints | A valence can be usefully and naturally assigned to many key observables
