>>12854787The "2" has to be from a different set. Then you can.
If you have 1 mountain divided by 2 valleys, eventually after erosion you will have 1/2 mountain in each valley on either side. This flat land has less energy than it did before when it was a mountain and two valleys.
You've divided by 2 and get a difference in energy, if you considered your t0 as 1 mountain and 2 valleys, you've gotten a negative number at tn.
But shit like this only works if you are comparing between sets.
My bullshit is both strong and weak.
