Call the resulting promise C. This submits a second copy of S, and assigns C as a synonym for S. (Note that promises with the same text, author, and conditions are fungible.) > I cash promise C, specifying promise I. Call the resulting promise D. One copy of S is cashed, specifying I. One copy of D is submitted, assigning X as a synonym for I. > I cash promise D, specifying promise D. One copy of a new promise is submitted; following the existing naming scheme, I call it E. X=I and Y=D. I'm not sure I see where you're going with this.
