Meanwhile all of Oracles arguments, to me at least,
remind me of attempts to confuse, along the lines of
"Yea, hath God said, ..."

Okay, let me see if I get this. I follow your symbolic reference for "John
11:35" which resolves to a string "Jesus wept."
In my copy of the Bible, that string is located on a particular line of a
particular page of the book. I can locate the string "Jesus wept." by
resolving the book:chapter:verse triplet. Since I'm human, I can do this
efficiently by thumbing through the pages, until I find the specific page
number, line number, and word position for that verse. Unless you have an
identical edition of the Bible, you'll probably have a different page and line
location for that string.
The book:chapter:verse triplet is the symbolic reference. A page number:line
number:word number triplet would be a direct reference to my specific copy of
the Bible. If I were to create a table that had three fields consisting of an
index number, a symbolic reference, and the corresponding direct reference, then
the index number would be an indirect, numeric reference.

It opens with the Title 'Page Numbers can be Symbolic References, Too'.
'You can only get to this page by looking up the title in the index. The title
is a symbolic reference that is resolved dynamically at the moment you need to
look it up.'
