Why it works
The first cut comes at 1.03 s, and the narrator concedes the claim at 0:10 before complicating it with data, creating a clear reason to keep watching. Three causes begin at 1:34, 3:30, and 4:05; the large salary chart at 2:33–2:40 is the most replayed moment within the analysed six minutes (0.43 replay score). A concise reversal at 4:32–4:39 resolves the opening question.
