Problem is that ORing tends to create ones just like ANDing tends to create zeros. Any sufficiently diverse and large group of numbers ORed together will give you all ones. But XORing is different. There's an equal chance of ones and zeros.

XORing is where
1 XOR 1 = 0
1 XOR 0 = 1
0 XOR 1 = 1
0 XOR 0 = 0

Maybe we have to XOR (or perform some other operation) across the value in the center, kind of like a magic square. We could test out operations on glyph 7, using 74 as the central number.
