The sides of an equilateral triangle $ABC$ are divided into $n$ equal parts $(n \geq 2) .$ For each point on a side, we draw the lines parallel to other sides of the triangle $ABC,$ e.g. for $n=3$ we have the following diagram:

unitsize(150);
defaultpen(linewidth(0.7));
int n = 3; /* # of vertical lines, including AB */
pair A = (0,0), B = dir(-30), C = dir(30);
draw(A--B--C--cycle,linewidth(2)); dot(A,UnFill(0)); dot(B,UnFill(0)); dot(C,UnFill(0));
label("$A$",A,W); label("$C$",C,NE); label("$B$",B,SE);
for(int i = 1; i < n; ++i) {
draw((i*A+(n-i)*B)/n--(i*A+(n-i)*C)/n);
draw((i*B+(n-i)*A)/n--(i*B+(n-i)*C)/n);

A crazy physicist has discovered a new particle called an emon. He starts with two emons in the plane, situated a distance $1$ from each other. He also has a crazy machine which can take any two emons and create a third one in the plane such that the three emons lie at the vertices of an equilateral triangle. After he has five total emons, let $P$ be the product of the $\binom 52 = 10$ distances between the $10$ pairs of emons. Find the greatest possible value of $P^2$.
