Clarify. Hopefully this defends the terminology choice here
-"Minkowskian" as it's a misnomer. Frobenius -> equilateral since Frobenius would imply the Euclidean norm

The Euclidean norm aka ''L''<sup>2</sup> norm resembles real-world distances.

The Minkowskian norm, Manhattan norm or taxicab norm aka ''L''<sup>1</sup> norm resembles movement of taxicabs in Manhattan – it can only traverse horizontally or vertically. A diagonal movement mounts to two steps.

The Chebyshevian norm aka ''L''<sup>infinity</sup> norm is the opposite of the Minkowskian norm – it is the maximum number of steps in any direction, so a diagonal movement is the same as a horizontal or vertical one.
