If so, this is the wrong kind of itersection;
streets ain't sets (well, I suppose you could
....).

The intersection of streets is much more common in daily parlance than the
intersection of sets, so I think it should have a short word. A street can be
regarded as the set of points along it, so the intersection of two streets is
the set of points they have in common, which is what's normally meant,
barring the complication of trying to figure out whether a point in the
fillet is in the street. (I doubt that Trade and Tryon are filleted;
filleting rights-of-way wasn't done on old maps.)

OT: I was in Raleigh with my mother in a clothing store. I asked some
saleslady, "Pardon me for being from Charlotte, but where's the Tryon room?"

It does, "kruca".

Well, the intersection is strictly {le te kruca}
and that seems to be about the right length. On
the other hand, it does seem strange to use cmavo
space for all this set notation (Cartesian
products are even rarer). I suppose the idea is
that mathematics — when someone gets around to
doing it in Lojban — will expect words to match
the notation. I am not sure why, since all
anatural languages seem to manage with it (this
goes for all of MEX as well).
