Ballsy and dangerous coördinating that many people to execute something like this. Cool show with the play-by-play shot well / from multiple angles to explain it all. Will check out more of it.

_coördinating_

Completely, unabashedly unrelated, but I honestly can't remember the last time I saw dieresis in the wild. Is this a regional thing?

That's how It's spelled in The New Yorker, for example.

The New Yorker is precisely where I saw & adopted the dieresis way back when. It's also simpler to type on vkeyboards than a hyphen -- click-and-hold vs switching layouts and back.

It was probably a typo, meant to be a - and typed a diaresis instead. Lots of keyboard layouts have easily accessible diareses.
