That's a beautiful observation!  I had not looked at the torsion.
What you are saying is that the obvious symmetries via permutations
correspond to negatin the point or adding a point of order 3, but that
there is another symmetry of order, adding a point of order 2.  What
does that look like in terms of (a,b,c)?
