  No gif will help. There is no visual explanation that will help was my point.

    Surely visual information helps with geometric problems? Our geometric intuition basically evolved to predict the relevance of light patterns on our retinas, and geometry is a language designed to encode these intuitions, so there's no reason to think visual tools presenting geometric facts would inherently fall short.

      And yet I still think that. What's up? I'm broken. Good to know.
