I'm sorry to quibble with the majority here, but, in this case, I think
we have enough problems with ambiguous terminology in
networking and this opportunity to avoid creating one more should
not be missed.

(The above paragraph was mainly so that I had an opportunity to toss
quibble into the text with it's other meaning).

Agreed. OTOH, Hextet is not technically correct while appearing to be so.



True... The correct term would be decohextet, but, decohextet is rather
long both to say and to write and really doesn't roll off the tongue the
way hextet does.
