What is the distinction that CSP is referring to for any triplet?

I offer a simple perspective of the term “unit” as I have used it in boarded 
context of “The union of units unite the unity”.  This is a poly-semeiotic 
perspective of the concept of unit, not a monadic semeiotic perspective of unit.
Let the triplet be expressed in any  system of units.

Say, 0, ^, *.

Then, a single unit can not be the same as a pair of units.
And, a pair of units can not be the same as a triplet of units. 

Then the three possible pairs of units are:

* ^
0 ^
^  *.

In set theory, a pair is signified by two symbols in parentheses ( _ , _ ), in 
total, represented by five symbols.
These symbols, in set theory, have the meaning of creating an ordered pair.

Thus, a triplet of symbols generates six ordered pairs within set theory.
* ^
^ *

0 ^
^ 0

^  *
* ^

The “difference that makes a difference” is the specification of attributes of 
the meaning of a unit.
In logic, one can distinguish between a mono-semeiotic unit and a 
poly-semeiotic unit.
Such a distinction is necessary for the logic of chemistry.
