No magma of size 3 satisfies Equation 677.
Proof. Equation 677 forces every row of the Cayley table to be a permutation (the map z ↦ y ◇ z has inverse x ↦ x ◇ ((y ◇ x) ◇ y)), so candidates lie in the (3!)³ = 216 row-Latin tables. Exhaustive check: none satisfies Eq677.

No magma of size 3 satisfies Equation 677.
**Proof.** Equation 677, x = y ◇ (x ◇ ((y ◇ x) ◇ y)), implies that for each fixed y, the map z ↦ y ◇ z is a bijection (its inverse is x ↦ x ◇ ((y ◇ x) ◇ y)), so every row of the Cayley table must be a permutation. An exhaustive check of all 6³ = 216 such 3×3 row-Latin tables shows that none satisfies Eq677.
