As Gilly stated, this should really be a binary progression... but as a demonstration of the problems that this raises, the ordering of this graph is extremely arbitrary. For instance, why would this graph not be just as good:
Code:
D1_______________________________X_________________________________
D2_______________subj____________________________obj_______________
D3___________X____________________X____________________X___________
D4_______Pi______________Je______________Ji______________Pe________
D5______X____________X____________X____________X____________X______

Besides adjusting the formatting, not that I've changed the order of the elements slightly - now there is now longer any function halfway between and ; instead, there is a function halfway between and ! There are several ways of correcting this, but all make the graph more than one-dimensional, which results in essentially a binary progression.
