We need to figure that out. 

bi/bi*/bi@
tri/tri*/tri@
cleave/spread/apply

It might make more sense to have a numerical syntax instead of words or better 
yet would be to only have cleave/spread/apply and have shorter symbolic syntax 
for it. 

Plenty of places where [ foo ] keep bar seems to look cleaner than [ foo ] [ 
bar ] bi and I’d rather we had more consistency and fewer tokens possibly.
