The extraordinary legacy of the Bernoulli family.
The Bernoulli family was a remarkable dynasty of Swiss mathematicians and physicists who made significant contributions to various fields of science in the 17th and 18th centuries. The family produced 8 prominent academics, most notably Jacob, Johann, and Daniel Bernoulli, who were among the pioneers of calculus, differential equations, probability theory, and fluid mechanics.

A coffee cup and a donut are the same object, topologically. Stretch and bend, but never tear or glue. Each has exactly one hole, so one deforms continuously into the other. They are homeomorphic.

There is no rationality in this comparison. Both are geniuses of one of their kind.

It has to, as the sweeping nature of second hand is unchanged as it is in real clocks.
