From question of Bald Eagle in povray.advanced-users, 2016-07-07, that page is missing how to access the fifth component of a 5D vector.

The answer is to see it as a colour: .red, .green, .blue, .filter, .transmit

x,u,red -> 1st

y,v,green -> 2nd

z,blue -> 3rd

t,filter -> 4th

transmit -> 5th

(as a colour, there is also .grey, but that's another story)

The page Vector sends to Numeric Expression, but that one dismiss any details about DOT_ITEM by sending back to Vector / Colour Pages, none of which cover the subject.
