Sometimes we get lucky. E.g. determining the smallest mutual majority
set is (to my knowledge) not doable with polyspace (summable) arrays,
but a method can still pass the mutual majority criterion and be
summable. Clone sets generally can't be identified with summable
information either (again to my knowledge), but methods can be cloneproof.
I was just hoping that something like that might be the case here. No
luck so far.
