Hi Alex, I most assuredly do not have the math to follow the argument but when they did a visual with a stick, a trampoline like set up, and a penny it certainly made sense.
Roll a penny across a flat trampoline it goes straight. Push in the center with the stick and the penny still attempts to go straight but ends up in a spiral. Much akin to a ball on a roulette wheel.
It will require a much better educated individual to argue for or against the math but when I saw the demonstration it certainly was a 'gotchya'
moment.
