Formally speaking, it is not trivially apparent that if one side of a V formation, then there are more birds on one side of a V. If this were true then it would imply that birds always fly with a precisely consistent spacing such that there are never more birds on the opposite side just flying closer together.

So if the statement were true it would actually be a relatively novel observation, but I question the legitimacy of the claim.

Anyways, I probably shouldn't be formally analyzing a shitpost about bird formations cross posed to a meme community lol
