[Grrrrr.]
It is there, but definitely technical, yes :-). Specifically:
"A numerical factor represents the vector space spanned by its columns."
and
"An interaction between two factors represents the vector space spanned by the element-wise products between vectors in the first factor’s space with vectors in the second factor’s space."
Which is a bit obfuscated, but has the advantage of remaining correct even when you go from numerical interactions to categorical interactions with complicated coding rules.
