Let me pose it as an exercise.

You can assign to each point p a value code[p]
such that if you add up the code[] of between 1 and 4 points
(not necessarily different), then from this sum you can tell whether
all these points are identical, and if so, what that point is.

It's like an error correcting code.

instead of plain pseudoliberties, which sum the value 1 for each
stone-empty adjacency,
we can sum these code[]s as well...
