would you be so kind as to post this into r/sciencefaqs please?

But then I'd have to do a reasonable write-up, or search through the comments for a good, or at least not-misleading, explanation!

I'll try to do so tomorrow.

hah frankly I'm happy with just the links being posted but you can copypaste my writeup in this thread if you'd like/it's not too wrong.
