Why it works
The first 18.5 seconds turn abstract red/cyan motion into a memory-gap question before the archive montage begins. Price and sales evidence reverses the expected success story from 0:42 to 2:27, then three rising objections lead to opposed article cards at 5:00–5:08; that comparison falls inside the analysed segment's most-replayed span (5:00.3–5:14.6).
