This link traps your browser tab at https://explainarxiv.org/explain due to the auto redirect. Not very polite.

I'll fix that for sure! thanks

I don’t understand what this is supposed to do ( I’m on my phone ). I can see the arxiv paper, and a bunch of instructions in the margin which I don’t understand.

What am I missing ?

why not start by analyzing the entire arxiv paper from the url. the image cut-n-paste is confusing.
