Additional notes

If the existential import assumption is satisfied, a and e are defined and are equivalent to A and E, respectively; consequently, the diagram is a classical sigma-2.

If the existential import assumption is not satisfied, a and e are not defined, and thus drop out of the diagram; consequently, the diagram is (again) a classical sigma-2.
