Talking points

The Materiality and Necessity attributes are complete descriptors of the Z Element attribute. It needs to be extended by the Z Mode of Expression to get full set of Zodiac Signs. The Materiality is identical to traditional "polarity".
For example: Cancer woudl be described as Physical-Permissive-Cardinal, while Libra is Spiritual-Permissive-Cardinal.
In this way we get away from the confusing typeology of 4 elements into more fundamental consitutive types of Materiality and Necessity.
