0 ^ 0 = 1 while T.init P^ T.init == T.init :) other are almot the same but 1 ^ 1 = 0 while x P^ y == y So it's not symmetric when x,y != T.init for starters ;)
Just a remark that DCT no longer needs tries to be immutable, since I decided not to backtrack which strings affect which syntax elements. OTOH, it is important to be able to do updates and reads at any time (intermixed).
Another note is that XOR makes sense only if you plan to do reverse transforms, or expect to pack diffs (if they will be sparse). Otherwise it would be more efficient to store new values directly.
