… I’m not sure “90°” means what you think it means… 😅😶
edit: Apologies, I’d assumed it was a compound phrase and not a janky one — as in, “opposite direction and also uphill” (therefore, 180°) rather than “describing a vertical surface as an incline”. My bad. 🤷🏼♂️
He’s using it as in a gradient of a hill
A perpendicular surface is not a hill. 🤦🏼♂️
He said almost 90 so yeah it could be, but it’s clearly expressive hyperbole
It does though…
