Of course that's his problem -- or one of them, at any rate -- but
I would hope that even Faker might realize what's going on when
presented with an example involving only velocity, whose units are
presumably more familiar to him. However, I concede that I may be
overestimating Faker here, particularly when I recall his "solution"
to Fermat's Last Theorem and his lunar landing lunacy.
