Further analysis reveals the following unnamed pairs of even-SOLL cubic and odd-SOLL Tetrahedral pieces with odd SOLLS up to 80. I have decided not to go beyond that so as to avoid the blurring of dualities around Opossum/Ultimatum/Lumel. Pure hex means that I have used the name for use on a 2d hex board. By duality means that it follows from existing logic for equating cubic and Tetrahedral pieces. Spare means simply that the name has no pre-existing Tetrahedral use.

So should I try and persevere with naming all these, or would it be going over the top?
