Using a new technique [1] for producing a wide variety of signals that can range from near-spherical to jetty, we compare event isotropy to other observables. We show that thrust T and the C parameter (and λmax, the largest eigenvalue of the sphericity matrix) are strongly correlated and thus redundant, to a good approximation.
