Jbosets will continue to have all the mathematical properties, so no
problem there.  But for example, a set may be a se ralju, though there is
no mathematical treatment of "leaders of sets".  The fact that mathematicians
never developed a theory of set leaders doesn't mean that our sets can't
have leaders.

In general, whenever a property is emergent only (like leadership; you
are the leader of LLG but not of the members of LLG), then we predicated
it of a set when constructing the gimste.
