[Cueball and Ponytail are standing near a blueprint of a spacecraft, with Cueball pointing at the blueprint.]

Cueball: To produce artificial gravity during the voyage, the crew capsule is kept in constant motion.

Ponytail: Wouldn't it make more sense to spin it instead of shaking it, so the acceleration is steadier?

Cueball: ...Listen. You, I, and the crew all wish we'd thought of that before launch.
