Also agree with this as well (I again just wasn’t as detailed in my response). I used the word apparent because that’s the established convention from all scientific papers on the topic, but you are 100% correct that it’s identical. The VomitComet flights are a great example, but a lesser known example is going downhill on a roller coaster.
