Accurately, yes, but in a non-orthogonal 3D system, it will be possible to 
define a 3D structure in more than one way. And that is what's causing lots of 
disagreement here.

A fair question. I'm not suggesting to order all possible patterns of level X 
along the X-axis, all Y patterns along the Y axis and so on. There's nothing 
mathematical about it, no integers are involved. The orthogonal dimensional 
metaphor can not be interpreted to the letter.
