Makes an affine space linear. It was a natural extension to provide direct transformations that encapsulate symmetry transformations, introduced by Mobius in his barycentric calculus.

For a moment I thought I clicked on a parody web site.

Harmy's despecialized versions are awesome. I watched them in a single sitting a couple of months ago. They have been the only recent editions that resonate with my childhood memories and give me that warm fuzzy feeling that everything is in its right place as I remember it. Moreover the days before I rewatched Andor and Rogue One in tandem. IMHO, as a full saga and the culmination of a story, they are as close to perfection you can get.
