  • Newcomers would not be aware that this was an oddity unless it was pointed out.

Arguments against:

  • It's obvious from the transcript.

Additional comments:

  • The fact is not mentioned explicitly in the transcript. Perhaps the transcript should note that "The Paper does not come down" rather use a Fun Fact.
    • The transcript should mention what actually does occur, rather than what does not occur. Facts that expand on the transcript should be placed in the fun facts section.

  • It's really not that obvious from the transcript. The whole section is not very readable and needs cleanup.
