The intercomm collectives are all basically defined as data movement from one 
group to the other (*and* vice versa), with the obvious exception of Barrier, 
which has no data movement -- just synchronization.

The key to understand is (aside from barrier):

- collectives with intracomms are data movement in the *same* group
- collectives with intercomms are data movement to the *other* group
