That’s a really excellent point.

Didn’t they just talk about circling back, not back into itself?
Don’t you drop a dimension from this deep conversation!

Are you picturing, like, a spring?

More like the difference between a circle with radius r >> 0 vs a point.
It was supposed to be another math pun about a line being 1 dimensional (at least it only requires a single parameter) with a point being 0D and the fact that “deep” conversations could be said to be multi-dimensional.
