That is a kind of binary liminality. Generalize from that to N-ary space.
von Gennep was talking about rights of passage — of which few
Excellent! Thanks. It does make the analogy a little more defensible if the
couplings between the locally structured Ising models (chained together by
common variables) can be relaxed, maybe allowing mixed phase whole models.

Liminal comes to mind as well - from von Gennep's discussion of rights of

I've seen a few articles with titles like "Coronavirus is the death of
