Why it works
The 0.50 s median shot keeps each narrated causal step visually active, while evolving diagrams in shots 38, 59 and 102 allow complex ideas to settle. Speech covers 87% of the film, and the green-beam explanation in shots 67–73 turns an invisible claim into a visible measurement. Shot 132 devotes the close to an actionable invitation.
