Reference points(as the role objects play in spatial frameworks)
Objects or positions that you use as markers to help you understand where other things are located or to organize your thinking.
Relational function(as what objects do in demonstrative thought)
A job or purpose that something serves only in relation to other things—in this case, objects matter mainly because of how they connect to or position other things, not because of anything internal to them.
