double cover with two broken-V nbhds   Note that the basic broken neighborhoods Vε0(x) and Vε'1(y) of points on the x-axes of different layers will be disjoint — unless
0 < ½|x-y| < min{ε, ε'},
in which case they will meet at exactly one point, lying over (½(x+y), ½|x-y|) .

  Any other pairs of broken V neighborhoods of distinct x-axis points, on whichever layers, will always be disjoint.
