As it stands, it doesn't look like there is one. It appears to be a recreational mathematical toy for the creator to learn things more than it is for others to play with. It's kind of neat nonetheless.
I think I might have made different choices for the reversal calculations, but I haven't really thought about how I'd implement those choices, nor about nigh-insurmountable edge cases, and I'm only vaguely thinking about the "c = a OP b" case, not anything more extreme. The creator may have wanted to make the same choices but found themselves forced down a different path.
Verbatim from the creator: "it is imperfect".
That's perfectly fine. :) I just couldn't find a use case and didn't want to miss it.
