Let B = (-1, 0) and C = (1, 0) be fixed points on the coordinate plane. A nonempty, bounded subset S of the plane is said to be nice if

\text{(i)} there is a point T in S such that for every point Q in S, the segment TQ lies entirely in S; and

\text{(ii)} for any triangle P_1P_2P_3, there exists a unique point A in S and a permutation \sigma of the indices \{1, 2, 3\} for which triangles ABC and P_{\sigma(1)}P_{\sigma(2)}P_{\sigma(3)} are similar.

Prove that there exist two distinct nice subsets S and S' of the set \{(x, y) : x \geq 0, y \geq 0\} such that if A \in S and A' \in S' are the unique choices of points in \text{(ii)}, then the product BA \cdot BA' is a constant independent of the triangle P_1P_2P_3.
