Correct, of course. I sacrificed a little accuracy for the sake of being easier for a novice to read; is there a sentence that would optimize both?
Do you understand this effect well enough to rule its statement "obviously correct"? I'm not that sure it's true, it's something built out of an intuitive model of "what CDT cares about", not technical understanding, so I would be interested in an explanation that is easier for me to read... (See another example in the updated version of grandparent.)
Right, we don't really understand it yet, but on an informal level it appears valid. I think it's worth mentioning at a basic level, though it deserves a fuller discussion. Good example.
