Please incorporate footnote 1 into the text. I pounded my head against this for over 10 minutes, while assuming [1] was some kind of bibliographic reference, and only noticed the footnote at all because it was at the top of the screen while I was writing a comment complaining I just could not understand the red-green-blue representation of groups despite extraordinary effort. (Also, footnote 1 really needs to be after the sentence “Only colorings which have at least one element in the right color slot for ALL the relations of the group are allowed.” I found this sentence to be the brick wall through which my understanding could not pass.)
Sorry about that! I don’t want to incorporate that into the text since I feel like it breaks the flow, but I made a more explicit note for more details at the suggested location.
Thanks. It still takes work, but understanding math usually does; at least now someone who (like me) finds this part radically harder to understand than anything earlier in the article has more chance of noticing that a more spelled-out explanation is available.
