	EXAMPLE	`A cube which is solved apart from one edge flipped, or one corner twisted, would be unsolveable and so would fit on the right.`

Concave shapes whose cavities are similar to the shape vs. concave shape whose cavities are not similar to the shape.

(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)

	COMMENTS	`"I am agnostic on whether to let this world include examples such as EX8932, where pixelation is used, or examples such as suggested by EX8928 similar to the "Topologist's Comb" (link in references) which are not locally path-connected. These two examples were provided by Aaron David Fairbanks." - Jago Collins 28th January 2021`

Vertical axis of symmetry vs. no vertical axis of symmetry.

(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)

	COMMENTS	`The solution for this Bongard Problem is also a (less specific) solution for BP500, "vertical axis of symmetry vs. no axis of symmetry".`
	CROSSREFS	`BP1207 is the same solution but using the horizontal axis instead of the vertical axis.` `BP1215 is the same solution but with the NW/SE diagonal instead of the vertical axis.` `Adjacent-numbered pages: BP1201 BP1202 BP1203 BP1204 BP1205 * BP1207 BP1208 BP1209 BP1210 BP1211`

More triangles left than right vs. more triangles right than left.

(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)

	COMMENTS	`The triangles vary in size in order to make the solution clearly about quantity, not "total mass".`
