Unitary Symmetry Viewed as a Broken Rotational Invariance

Abstract
The incorporation of ΔQ=ΔS currents into SU(3) theory implies its extension into an R(8) symmetry. Universality requires that these "skew" currents have a much weaker coupling than the ΔS=ΔQ transitions. The R(8) currents may cause the breakdown of CP invariance as suggested by Wolfenstein. An R(8) model would not allow the existence of SU(3) triplets.
