Thus in the above example, the structure r12c34 would be referred to as a Reverse-UR.
If the term refers however to the Remainder (but I don't think this is the intention) then the above structure would be referred to as a Reverse Bug-Lite.
I agree that most reverse uniqueness terminology is a bit misleading and not very logically consistent with the rest of our terminology. I came up with the idea for the Reverse BUG one day after joining the forums and wrote about it in my 4th post or so. I was not very familiar with existing terminology back then and was probably not the most suitable person to name a new technique. (Actually, the name seems to come from this post where vidarino had misinterpreted my concept and I told him to think of the exact opposite, then added "You could call it a reverse BUG if you like.") As the technique is very unconventional and exceptionally rare it didn't arouse very much discussion and the naming was never brought up. The reverse BUG-lite probably got that name because "reverse BUG" was already taken and BUG-lite was close enough.
