Instead of making fun of it here, explain why you would place the house differently because of the circular arc?
He is not making fun, but merely notes his amusement. And he would not
place the house differently, but from a more precisely depicted course of the curve could simply better recognize that
possibly a different position would be better (or an apparently fitting one only seemingly fits). Even a 24-gon is still not a circle; it can very well be that a "straight" point seemingly more fitting is nevertheless "in the penalty area" by the decimeter range.
Since I am accused of being resistant to advice and not making clear statements,
Clear statements as well – but as a seesaw of yeses and nos – can confuse. I allowed myself the comparison with StanSch’s post because there was also a back and forth about fixed points there, which were alternately considered sacred and at other times allowed to be resolved quite differently (and back).
