Out of curiosity regarding the series' usual affinity for multiples of "3"
and "5" elements, idly reformatted it focused on the PH which broke it to
9-character groups.

Or another way, the placement of the repetitive "3" appears to be conformal
(positional) to previous 40 character strings.

This series packaging is always interesting. If this was a business it
would be trademarked.
