I like it... out of all the representations of the space time grid the one in the article is the first and only one that I have ever noticed that has the space time grid bent in the correct manner... the grid bends to mass not around a mass as the ball and the blanket offers for example.. a very misleading example taken up and propogated via artist impressions of gravitational lensing... it irritates me beyond belief the various representations of gravitational lensing that have been drawn with the ball and blanket dictating a stupid presentation of the matter.
