Ouch. That's where the DAG analogue breaks, or even the analogue with
graphs in general. Didn't think of that.
In order to maintain the analogy, would it be possible to disallow
"identical twins", so to say? Obviously this would mean getting rid of
the Clone Node function and having "Paste node as clone" as the normal
way of producing clones. Or are there use cases for having multiple
clones as siblings?
On a related note, how would unified-node versions of Leo handle
legacy files? Will there be an import function? If you'd be willing to
make a change taht radical, the import function would then merge
idenical twins to a single node (and give a warning about it).
I am boldly proposing this for three reasons: Out of some kindergarten
spite ("you destroy my card house, so I'm destroying someone else's"),
because I am right now seeing no use for identical twins, and because
I think it is a very good idea to keep the analogy to some very well
described and explored mathematical structure.
