Should there be a triad of things of which only two of them are things? Why can't the not-thing be also a thing?
Let's say I have a widget, the same widget, and a doohickey. Clearly, the widget and the same widget are two things which are one thing. These one things and the doohickey are the two things of the triad. Looked at another way, suppose I have a doodad, a thingammy, and a nothing. The nothing is not a thing, but I still have it, so now we have a triad of two things and a nothing.
I think your turban's too tight.
