V.R.Parton used the term 'vertexal' to describe the 3D movement which
involved the change of three axes in a cubic field.  This would be
etymologically comparable to 'corner-wise'.  Both both of these terms
would change meaning when applied to a 2D structure.

And, like this article, this discussion has highlighted the differences
in
titles and descriptives.  Between what is common, what is proper and what
is ideal.  Could it not best be said that a word is only as good as what
it means to describe? ;-)
