My BASIC unit triangles have no "altitudes"

Distance (separation) only exists from vertex to vertex, not to any "point" on the basic units of distance. In other words my basic unit line segments are not composed of "points". As you can see I am strictly ~CH and reject the idea of infinitesimals. Each basic unit triangle is a basic unit "plane", and each basic unit tetrahedron is a basic unit of "space".

What I find especially interesting is that when you start putting these together in a sort of "Tetrahedronal Coordinate System (T.C.S)", they do not fit together in any symmetric fashion. This may account for asymmetries we find in our physical world, where classical mathematics models would predict symmetry.
