Logic Comparison of the Forever vs. the flat periodic table

Logic of the Alexander Arrangement of Elements
Forever Periodic Table

By employing the third dimension for accuracy and motivation,
the 3D Forever periodic table;

bulletpermits correct placement of the f-block within the main body of the table, while staying a physical entity as well.
leading
bulletdisplays the Main Group blocks connected from top to bottom for enhanced trends observation and understanding.
leading
bullethas an attractive, novel, and motivational appearance of what is more accurate than any other known element arrangement.
leading
bulletuses an element row slant (patented) in the d-block, connecting each period's last element to the first of the next period, following the s-p-d-f block sequence.
leading
bulletis a reference and learning tool that most closely reflects the paradigm of very first periodic table by de Chancourtois, the elements on a continuous helix, or spiral.
leading
bulletemploys student interaction to see and learn all the element and block relationships in a tactile as well as visual way.


Logic of the standard flat periodic table
leading
By limiting the periodic table to two dimensions for production convenience and wider distribution, the flat chart;
bulletadheres to the Mendeleev periodic law's: " ...arranged according to their atomic mass... "requirement but only when arrows, asterisks, or lines are employed at elements 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,10, 11, 18, 19, 36, 37, 54, 55, 56, 57, 70, 71, 86, 87, 88, 102, and 103.
qtModernqtPT with gaps closed
bulletelement blocks are in s-d-p- sequence, and elements of the f-block are completely detached from the others.
leading
bulletthe Main Group blocks appear at opposite ends of the chart, making trends observation and understanding more difficult by wide separation of the key main group elements.
leading
bulletit is an icon of educational difficulty - and a method of concept or object arrangement that suits many varied popular non-scientific interests - which are greatly enhanced by its characteristic visual awkwardness.
leading
bulletallows a pragmatic reference and learning tool to become the most common visualization of the relationships among of elements, much like world maps, which are helpful and common versions of the world globe, regardless of distortions (polar regions) and misinformation (relative continent size/shape) in numerous areas.
leading
bulletpermits observation of all elements at one time on a flat surface, of great economic and educational value, but exhibits a block sequence of s-d-p plus f-.

Whats that, she said, the periodic table the way it's supposed to be but isnt?
