They are strictly equivalent mathematically speaking and thus the
point set {Xn,Yn,Zn} should be on a straight line with equation:
Z = Y = Xin the tridimensional space. Unfortunately, when the R parameter increases (from 2.0 -picture 01- to 3.0 -picture 16-) the rounding-off errors become huge and give birth to three different numerical Verhulst dynamics. Then, the {Xn,Yn,Zn} points appear "anywhere" inside a cube.
