    My anal retentive side really wants me to whittle away the duplicates in this chart…

    I like the astronaut ninja–he looks so bewildered.

    I would have preferred if the duplicates had instead been a different take so that “robot-ninja” is different from “ninja-robot”. Multiplication of archetypes is not commutative. Archetypes are more like matrices than vectors.

    Also, the boxes on the “type-type” diagonal should be MORE of whatever they are. A ninja-ninja is to regular ninja what ninja are to regular people.

    no, ninjaXninja is like multiplying 1×1, it equals ninja.

    i like this chart a lot.
