I suspect it operates this way to avoid an issue similar to the Billion Laughs Attack. The fact that this doesn't trigger an immediate infinitely recursive crash in Powerpoint (ultimately a memory overflow of some kind but before a severe slowdown as it attempts to create an XML file of significant size -- as suggested at 12:05) suggests Microsoft requires the save on purpose. When you save it says: "OK, I will do one recursion level because that seems like what you want, but just one." When the Billion Laughs Attack was first identified I remember it being quite the headache for us to handle at my previous company (we sold one of the most popular XML editors, and it had its own parser, originally based on an SGML editor from the 1980s, which then became an XML parser 1997 when we were working on the first XML recommendation). I identified that Billion Laughs would actually affect our XML parser, which was predictable because our parser was very compliant to the XML recommendation and supported entities in both the XML and any associated DTD. Convincing management that it was something we did in fact need to deal with, and "waste" development time on, was quite a pain. Creating all the various test cases needed to break our software was quite fun though.

@MichaelKingsfordGray Right we have the same issues with poor XML parsers (exponential entity expansion for example en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billion_laughs_attack). Though if you ever tried to implement an XML parser yourself you will realise that for several possible issues there's no easy fix. Most programming languages detect unconditional recursion of a function. However most of them fail to detect cyclic recursion of two or more functions. Things easily become too complex to detect all possible things that can go wrong accidentally or on purpose. That's also why things like Meltdown ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meltdown_(security_vulnerability) ) are actually possible. Most things (hardware and software) nowadays are too complex to guarantee security / safety.

I messed around a bit and was able to create the T-Square Fractal. It took a while but I think it turned out pretty well. If you want to see the image, here is the link: imgur.com/a/YmRJDYx

If you don't want to have to embed another presentation and hit save, just drag the preview image of the slide from the left onto the same slide. It will automatically propagate!

It would be MEGA interesting to see how you would explain the 'interaction' between physics and compution (cumputing, computation? whatever, you catch my drift), if that even is a thing. Maybe a small series even? Anyway, amazing videos both of you!
