And of course everyone agrees on the atomicity of a depict
feature!?  This is a meta-rule that needs refinement when
it comes to details and this is what this discussion is
about.

If you're overly pedantic you could map atoms or molecules,
anything else will break that rule.  Or maybe start using
quarks?
