Why it works
The counterintuitive claim is visible by 0:02.2 and audible by 0:04.9, then supported with code refactors through 2:33 rather than assertion alone. A question at 2:33, a documentation distinction at 3:23, and specific exceptions at 4:38 make the argument more credible; the 1:07.5–1:11.0 replay peak sits on the turn to types.
