Isoclinic in a sentence as an adjective
OK, so my question is what's wrong with breaking a rotation into left and right isoclinic parts?
A 4d rotation can be decomposed into a left-isoclinic and right-isoclinic rotation, which in turn can be represented by left- and right-multiplication with unit quaternions.
Left-multiplication by a unit quaternion corresponds to a left-isoclinic rotation, and right-multiplication corresponds to a right-isoclinic one.
In particular, it makes simple monoplanar rotations overly complicated, in exchange for making isoclinic rotations super simple--while rotors handle monoplanar rotations entirely naturally, with an obvious extension to isoclinic rotations.
