H is on top of F and the connection between H and F is crazy. The connection between G and the pentagon has been stretched beyond all reason. This mesh is growing ever more insane. In other words, the conventional process of education requires the student to rip up perfectly reasonable meshes in order to obtain better meshes. True, the end results are superior, but the intermediate steps are utterly nonsensical to the student.
Education becomes a process with as much intellectual demolition as construction.
Now consider how narrative handles the problem of getting the student from Figure 4 to Figure 5. The teacher presents the student with the entire story of Figure 5, as a complete whole. It's obvious that the student is being asked to make big changes in this mesh, but he has three solid reference points, the C triangle, the D quadrilateral and the pentagon. Moreover, many of the older relationships have been preserved, just stretched and moved. Seeing the story in its entirety, the student can readily see the alterations necessary to incorporate it into his own mesh.
