Why it works
The opening makes the narrated contradiction visible as handwriting breaks apart before the first diagram, and speech carries 84% of the measured film. The 670-frame shot 31 and 986-frame shot 44 hold a stable visual map while paths and arrows develop, letting the viewer follow both proofs without repeated scene resets. A second titled paradox at 79.83–86.33 s renews the question after the first payoff.
