In answer to the question by Dan Hoey, I printed out the unique
antipodal of the 3x3x3 edges [...].

It is really quite extraordinary and wonderful. [...]. Without
further ado:

Someone else remarks that it's "got to be all edges flipped in place",
and Jerry Bryan remarks that it is.

   *2*              *5*
   2*2              3*4
   *2*              *2*

   *5*              *2*
   5*5              3*4
   *5*              *5*

I disagree. Look at the 1-2 edge. If it's "flipped in place", then
since it appears to be fixed, the cube must flip around it. But then
the four 3 faces would be where the 4 faces actually are. No, it's
more complicated than just all-edges-flipped.

"[Q]uite extraordinary and wonderful" it is.
