Stellar, I think you completely missed my point.
I known all about Orion, Pleiades, etc. I'm quite familiar with the constellations... I can identify many of them on sight, and have a fairly good quality telescope to view them.
What I'm saying, (besides the fact that there are other ways to interpret seven stars) is that you assigned a different VMS word token to Taurus than other people who have gone down this same road and you imposed the "4" glyph on the letter "a".
So, to support your assertions:

So, to support your assertions:
- You need to justify why you turned the "a" into a "4", otherwise people might think you did so to make your numbers come out the way you want them.
- You need to explain why you disagree with the labels assigned by previous researchers and switched them around.
