You are of course correct. I needed to look at 'help coordinates' to  
realise that each x,y (or z) could be a different system even within an xy  
pair.

        {<system>} <x>, {<system>} <y> {,{<system>} <z>}

  Each <system> can either be `first`, `second`, `graph`, `screen`, or
  `character`.

Thanks.
