My prevailing theory is it creates a hypotenuse that makes their hypotenuse-leg look longer and your brain generalizes tgat impression/illusion to the other obliquely (and therefore: skinny-er)?

Its not a conspiracy man, I swear bro

takes a bong rip

Add the angles up on those subsquares, they ALWAYS add up to 180 degrees i.e. -> π. EXPLAIN THAT.

All triangles add up to a WHOLE PI even when they are slices of a pie themselves!?!!! Does nobody else see there is obviously something fishy going on?
