I won't argue the claim that two wraps is often enough, but my goodness, doesn't the Incorrect!!! caption for a perfectly fine rig seem a bit overdramatic? And the "terrible waste of resources"... Boy. That extra 2 seconds and four feet of rope used. What a tragedy.
You misunderstood the reason for the "Incorrect!" label: it's that the loaded rope rubs against the coils due to wrap-down technique. Wrap up is the "Correct!" technique.
Is that enough for a new cartoon? Please?
