Regarding distributional value, a histogram is good but you do need to map the random variable co-domain partition to the bins. I would like the distributional value representation to be...

Instead of map it could also be 2 vectors, one `FloatSeqValue` and one `ValueSeqValue` linked by their indices. And one could establish a convention such that if the partition vector...

Any opinion? In the absence of feedback with the next 48h, I'll probably do the change.

I think `InheritanceLink`(s) should remain unchanged, first there isn't an obvious order based on frequency, and it is consistent with `ImplicationLink`.

@linas just a reminder to have you ponder about it before relaunching your experiments ;-)

BTW, it's not sure that your experiments would be affected by this change. As far as I know there are only 2 core components that assume a particular order for...

`MemberLink` is basically set membership https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Element_(mathematics). So, yes, the cons of that change (besides the fact that it opens rooms for midterm confusions) is that it is in contradiction with...

Oh wait, but `member` from srfi-1 is a different thing... Hmm, anyway...

I'd have to look carefully at the code but the following comment makes me think it does need to be abelian https://github.com/opencog/atomspace/blob/26f73776dd689f6b6db0c7642a29c0f9f2374189/opencog/atoms/core/ScopeLink.cc#L242-L244

> I believe it can be done using URE: https://github.com/opencog/ure Exactly :-). I'm really thinking of adding this `BackwardChainerGetLink` now, to make it almost as accessible as a pattern matcher...
