The way I use the term, the ASSA just refers to use a global measure
for answering the question "What is my next OM experienced". For other
questions using a global measure over OMs, the original term SSSA
(strong SSA) should be used. I'm aware of a few situations (mostly
hypotheticals) where the SSSA is valid. The SSA refers to a global
measure on birth moments, and the RSSA is typically based on the SSA.

The everything list wiki has some notes on the RSSA/ASSA distinction -
I'm wondering if these shouldn't be inserted directly into Wikipedia,
as the everything wiki has been near death since its inception.

Cheers
