For example: #CamelCase will be provided in all contexts matching [[camel case]] and all known variations, and this relationship is symmetric by default, in the sense that the user might provide either and be later served matching resources in all associated contexts. + +To put simply, an Agora optimistically defines equivalence classes with good intention. Note that outlines plus linking are sufficient to encode a [[hypergraph]] in an easily parseable way, heterarchies encoding relationships between [[wikilinks]] at different levels. In the opinion of the author this structure is sufficient to encode a [[hypergraph]] in a human friendly way, which might do away with the need for programmatically generated [[block references]][^blockrefs].
