Why it works
The opening turns an unreadable icon field into a 100-person premise by shot 2, then teaches the unit with a near-even split around 10–12 s. The same 100 figures rearrange through shots 3–4 instead of resetting the graphic language; a continuous boundary at frame 2128 carries the viewer into concrete examples, and the wealth stacks around 130–143 s give an abstract comparison physical form.
