As abstract polytope tic is isomorphic to quith, thereby replacing octagons by octagrams.
Note that tic can be thought of as the external blend of 1 cube + 8 tets + 6 squacues, cf. the right Steward toroid T4 \ Q4P4Q4. This decomposition is also described as the degenerate segmentochoron oo3ox4xx&#xt.
