    Supports→The correspondence between mathematical and physical orthogonality is not necessary for the KS argument, though it can be devised.

    An earlier example was given without any correspondence between mathematical and physical orthogonality.

    However, the choice of a specific O that selects observables Sx2, Sy2, Sz2 at the same time selects three orthogonal rays in physical space, namely by fixing a coordinate system ±x, ±y, ±z (which defines along which orthogonal rays the squared spin components are to be measured) in physical space. So now, by choice of an observable O, there is a direct connection of directions in space with directions in H3: orthogonality in H3 now does correspond to orthogonality in physical space.
