Great statistical work. It’s a small sample size but the data is pretty neat.

      They troll patented it. It was already patented, the patent expired, then these dildos patented it again as an “improved technique” and in their application they pointed to a bunch of patents that have nothing to do with the brick layer method.

    It looks like this was testing in tension? I image most of the improvements would happen in shear. Since that’s where you make the crack more tortuous. In tension the increase in contact is very slight.
