I will take a break. It is possible that doing this as parsing would be better. Though I suspect not.

Nope, vector component tokens are a bad idea. Instead I will have a general syntax of JUXTAPOSITION. It can mean multiplication. It can mean concatenation of strings, etc. hiha is an ORTHOGONAL language! And by convention I rather than i should represent the imaginary unit. Then i is available as an index, but also it id because I is a bivector, not a true vector. It is a directed weighted planar entity that is a wedge product of two vectors. (Tell that to the Hilbert space dudes.)
