Classical Logic – Square of Opposition – an Aristotelian AI?

“A Nonstandard Graph, Elements and Operations, a Card Game Dialect A combination of the Mold dialects and Sandwich graph, backed by axiomatic math, creates a unique space of science and fantasy.”

EXAMPLES:

Barbara (AAA)
All men are mortal. (MaP)
All Greeks are men. (SaM)
All Greeks are mortal. (SaP)

M-P=0 and S-M=0 then S-P=0

Celarent (EAE)
Similar: Cesare (EAE)

No reptiles have fur. (MeP)
All snakes are reptiles. (SaM)
No snakes have fur. (SeP)

M-P=M and S-M=0 then S-P=S

Can Mold handle more complex cases, using inherited characteristics like FLIPPING and SWAPPING?
