Gene Wolfe was asked by James Jordan: "Which of the following, if any, are
physically (not in some merely literary or symbolic sense) the same planets
as Blue and Green, in the same order?:

Ushas and Lune
Urth and Lune
Lune and Ushas
Lune and Urth
Two Urths
Two Ushases
Two Lunes"

Gene Wolfe: "None"

I believe that qualifies as unequivocal.

Can we talk about "And When They Appear"?  Or something.
