collective

Sorter is multiplayer. Anyone can add to #sorter-properties, just by emailing in a syntax-conforming snippet. Anyone can vote on what they think the ordering should be. Sorter is a collaborative project. Nobody owns the rankings. Everybody owns the rankings.

transitive

We are now in the body of the item titled /transitive, because of the open bracket. We could write an entire essay here. Transitive is the property I just demonstrated above. The ranking between /b and /c is inferred from the other two rankings. In general, with precise ratios, you only need N-1 votes for N items. Just enough to connect all the dots together.
