==========================================

Time to give it up Jax, you're busted.

Fact is Feynman was right, BUT,

[Sprinkler Heads] [not equal] [Rudders]

Prop flow over rudder in reverse is small but it's there.

As a result It exerts a force against the rudder, but the effect is
small enough to be negligible for all intents and purposes.

[Small Negligible Force] [not equal] [No Force] however.
