I think you want http://www.jsoftware.com/help/dictionary/d310n.htm

Especially points 4 and 5.

But I actually haven't found anything that suggests that x and y are
analogs for u and v when u and v are not used. I think that might be pure
backwards compatibility (which suggests it should be treated in am manner
analogous to 9!:48 and 9!:49).

Thanks,
