Why "OR"? The concepts are orthogonal.

OR as in an alternative to proposal in xoB's OP
OR as a link to the Wikipedia article

...whichever floats your boat.

But you used a word that was new to me: "orthogonal"
It set me off on an enjoyable exploration into it's use/meaning.
I got into it's various uses, but in computer programming, it lead
to the Capability Maturity Model (CMM) assessment levels of processes and development.

Applying the five Key Process Areas (KPA 1-5) to Oregon's experience with Vote-by-Mail,
it's clear our elimination of old school voting booths is now mature,
and meets Oregon's original [orthogonal] goals !

In any case, I think I learned a lot ... and no hub caps were stolen !

So, thank you
