- **The geometry is data, not design (confirmed, "yes").** A node has a
number of ports, and that number is a parameter, as cell width and node
memory are. Which port connects to what is a table that can change while
the system runs. A geometry is a rule for filling in that table; the
units-and-centres rule below is the first, not the only one. Devices —
the common SSD, the console, a node's own drive — are things on the
other end of a port, in the same table. Nothing in the engine knows
which geometry is in use. A node is told, or finds out, which port leads
toward a destination.
