'''Z ZZ ... ZZ WZ''' (in strand ''S''<sub>2</sub>)
'''Z ZZ ... ZZ WZ''' (in strand ''S''<sub>2</sub>)


Moreover, the offset '''δ''' = '''Z'''.
Moreover, the offset '''δ''' = '''Z''', i.e. ''S''<sub>2</sub> is separated '''Z''' to the right of ''S''<sub>1</sub>.


If any maximal subword of consecutive '''Z'''s has ''q'' > 1, then the scale can be split into two subwords, ''w''<sub>1</sub> with consecutive '''Z''''s and ''w''<sub>2</sub> with consecutive non-'''Z''' letters. Consecutive non-'''Z''' letters contradict '''δ''' = '''Z''': Let ''r'' be the length of a maximal subword of non-'''Z''' letters in ''w''<sub>2</sub>.
