The description of the algorithm notes that each irregular pentagon is divided into four sub-pentagons. Eyeballing the maps, I don't see any group of 4 pentagons forming a similar larger pentagon.

I noticed that you had an analog to the H3 landing page on your landing page, allowing zooming in. If you could also steal the next-higher / next-smaller overlay like they did on the H3 landing page, it would make it clearer the relationship between the larger and smaller pentagons.

I've used H3 extensively, and one of the things that always bugged me about it was that each large hexagon was _mostly_ covered by a group of the next smaller ones, but because geometry, the edges have some overlap with the neighbor large hexagons. So I can't just truncate an integer mapping, for example, to get the ID of the next-largest.
