 Equality-pattern orbits of projective triples

The general linear group over a finite field acting diagonally on projective triples has five orbits of a group action: all equal, three different positions for the repeated coordinate when exactly two are equal, and all distinct. The corresponding representative stabilizer subgroups are upper triangular, diagonal, and scalar matrices. Their orders are $p(p-1{)}^2$, $(p-1{)}^2$, and $p-1$, respectively; the orbit sizes are $p+1$, $p(p+1)$, and $p(p+1)(p-1)$. Transitivity follows from the action being sharply three-transitive on a projective line.
