Small mis-step because of an extremely bias head-example (99%H, 1%T).

When imagined, the first result is 99% Heads...until you finally flip a Tails.

We had to do this exact thing in 6th grade, and I picked proving 5%...fml.

I forgot that they are discrete pairs, not continuous (like my head cannon).

The XOR is the magic. Always has been.
