Comment on Higher-order Venn diagrams

Comments

Very neat, from a theoretical perspective. Doing the work on the printer with postscript was a neat hack that I'm not sure I'd have thought of.

Unfortunately, the reason one would use a Venn diagram in the first place is to provide an accessible, "at-a-glance" insight regarding set overlap. The 12-set diagram linked at the bottom of the article fails at this task miserably.
