It is possible to specify ''abstract rules of equivalence'' (AROEs) between cacti, rules for transforming one cactus into another that are ''formal'' in the sense of being indifferent to the above choices for logical or semantic interpretations, and that partition the set of cacti into formal equivalence classes.

The careful reader will have noticed that we have begun to use graphical paints like "a", "b", "c" and schematic proxies like "C_1", "C_j", "C_k" in a variety of novel and unjustified ways.
