If you have the following scenario:

- ...repeat N times (e.g., to AN)

well, how about the following for your example:

- D = intercomm_merge (AB)
- E = intercomm_merge (AC)
- F = intercomm_create (DC, using E as bridge-communicator)

I had to think about this for quite a while before I understood it -- I initially assumed that "DC" was a typo and you really meant "DE". But I eventually understood that "DC" is exactly what you meant and that seems to adhere to the spec.

Yes, that's a clever solution.  Good show!
