So did you watch the video? Does it take 30 minutes to answer that question?

If you really want the details on why, then yes

But it doesn't seem like you're the person who is into knowing about why the world is how it is. So I suppose you'll not want to know

It takes 30 minutes to explore the engineering topic. Its interesting for me

Do you also complain that the movie Titanic wasn't 30 seconds long? After all that's all you need to show the ship.
