So glad I'm not the only one who noticed. Curious if I just became hyper aware of his methods, or if he changed his video style.
The whole light second long cord switching on a light with a delay was super scummy. Milked that "controversy" for months.
I enjoyed the back and forth over the topic, personally, but that initial video of his felt... weak. I didn't hate it but it did make me want to unsubscribe. It felt like a technicality and like a trick more than anything, to me.
The practicalities of how two nearby parallel wires work versus one big loop wasn't the question posed, it was based on length (As I remember from watching it once). Felt like a 'gotcha' moment with no gotcha.
