The projection used shows points overlapping for odd n that could mislead one to believe they are the same point. e.g. in the 3-cube, the point in the middle is actually two points, one in front, and one behind. For a better image, the projection angle should be adjusted such that no two points overlap. - 24.155.226.79

I agree overlaps is confusing. The perspective represents a special symmetry perspective, with a projection perimeter as a regular polygon (petrie polygon). The nodes are colored where there's overlaps. Tom Ruen (talk) 05:14, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
