Common questions
How stubborn is the swapped-coordinates error?
Very, until the corridor-then-stairs chant moves in. (3, 5) and (5, 3) are different addresses, and plotting BOTH once, seeing them apart, makes the order feel necessary instead of arbitrary.
What lives at (0, 0)?
The origin, home base, where the axes cross. Points like (0, 4) sit ON the vertical axis, no steps across, four up, and those edge cases are worth a question each.
