I think this is a deep insight. I'm not sure the math adds anything, though.
I feel like it may have even obscured the point...I spent more time wading through the math than I did thinking about the bias shield effect. Since it didn't really clarify anything, it came across as some kind of signalling...not sure if that's what it was, but it's certainly what it looks like.
Oh, I don't think it's signalling, I just think Phil really likes math :-)
