Correction to my last posting:
Rules 1 and 2, cardinality addition and subtraction, respectively
should read "order set to greatest", not "order adds if type equal,
otherwise set to greatest". A good way to think of this is class R1
for lengths, R2 for areas, R3 for volumes - or in other words that all
lengths, areas, and volumes have infinite cardinality of three different
orders, we just factor the infinity out into the units for computational
convenience.
