This is almost the same as AORBQ, with the addition of an extra label for the middle point QMidP & QMiddle.

Clearly if the mid point is named, the number of items Qni needs to be odd. 5 would be a default number, 7 is also possible. 3 is the absolute minimum, but discouraged as it omits positions that may well be wanted. For 5 it would be something like this:

• One end position
• (in between position)
• The middle (“liminal”) position
• (in between position)
• The other end position

The extra QDetails are:

• QPref1: mandatory short description of one end
• QMidP: mandatory short description of the mid-point
• QPref2: mandatory short description of the other end
• QPrefer1: optional longer description of one
• QMiddle: optional longer description of the middle, liminal position
• QPrefer2: optional longer description of other

• This structure is essentially the same as AORBQ, with the middle, central, or liminal point named as well.
