At the risk of piling on (others have commented), I'll go so far as to say that there really is more information here if you make the gentle assumption of a human observer. In the animated version, a human observer here is allowed (forced) to occupy mental states of a real-time observer. They have the experience of "X has jumped ahead - I wonder if it'll last - oh, wow, Y is really surging". The visceral experience matters, and is impossible to recreate post-hoc if all of the info is presented up front. (edit: "more information" in so far is it informs more - leaves more impressions on the observer)
