Why it works
The question lands at 0:00 and the first cartoon proof arrives by 0:00.6; seven cuts in the first 10 seconds quickly establish the visual search. A repeatable presenter-in-circle layout keeps primary-source documents readable while 48 changes inside the 58 shots refresh the frame. The opening object returns for a fine-print reveal at 2:43–2:51, the strongest replay window.
