Additional notes

The current annotation focuses on the triangle 'in the background'. The annotation for the square 'in the foreground' can be found here.

A and C are identical to the canonical A and E, respectively. B is equivalent to I $\wedge$ O.

The negation closure of this diagram is a JSB sigma-3.
