When we talk of “orthogonality”, we usually mean that the space defined by these axes is as “full” as we can logically make it. Part of the Ruby way is to strive for this orthogonality.

Use a cackle bladder to bite on and spit blood whether faced with a gang or a single assailant. This is often enough to dissuade would-be aggressors […].
It's a trick con men call the cackle-bladder. You take a little bag made from a pig's bladder and fill it up with chicken blood, and keep it inside your mouth until it's time to play dead.
"A cackle-bladder," she murmured.
"A what?"
"It's a way to deal with the violent ones. You make them party to the consequences of violence, make them believe they've murdered someone."

2020, Bei-Lok B. Hu, Enric Verdaguer, Semiclassical and Stochastic Gravity, Cambridge University Press, page 337,
Whereas semiclassical gravity is based on the semiclassical Einstein equation with sources given by the expectation value of the stress-energy tensor of quantum fields, stochastic semiclassical gravity is based on the Einstein—Langevin equation, which has in addition sources due to the noise kernel.
2024, Chaoyuan Zhu, Semiclassical Nonadiabatic Molecular Dynamics, Springer, page 109,
Of course, the main problem with such semiclassical treatment is to find suitable coordinate[s] in which [a] multidimensional scattering or reaction Schrödinger equation has to be expanded into the certain one-dimensional many-state coupled Schrödinger equations like Equation 4.219.
