I believe every radio telescope has their own reference clock that lives at the site. The EHT team is not responsible for schlepping these clocks around. There are other reasons besides VLBI to have really good timing at the site—for exampl

> fixed-length binary strings are a group where the operation is xor (or '^') and inv(x) = x Most people would call this group (Z/2Z)^n, i.e. n copies of Z/2Z under addition. Similarly, for "matrix addition" you could say Z^(mn) or R^(m
