There is something wrong with how your email client quotes my email,
or how my email system sends them to you, so I am going to trim quotes
and reply inline here.

Consider this example:
   3 5 5 #: 13 17
0 2 3
0 3 2

Here, the number 13 corresponds to the row 0 2 3, and the number 17
corresponds to the row 0 3 2.

So if we deal with the result separately, we need to pull the second
column from rank 1 (rows), while if we build a verb that does both
steps together, that verb will be dealing with rank 0 (individual
numbers).

Does that help put things in perspective?

Thanks,
