I believe the idea is that a flywheel maintains momentum and makes the rest of the process easier, as opposed to starting cold each time.

That’s not what is being described though: “You put in the same amount of work (or less) each time, and get more and more out of it the more you repeat it.”
I guess that works if the "stuff" you put in is torque, and the effect is the angular velocity?
In linear coordinates, they could have called it the marketing frictionless skateboard - the more you kick the faster it goes!
