Me too. I was assuming the word "treadmill" meant something roughly equal to the length of the plane, not something three miles long.

If someone had simply said "giant moving walkway the length of a runway" instead, we would have avoided 99% of the debate.

It's like starting a debate titled "you can't eat a sandwich in one sitting" without elaborating that the sandwich is the size of your house.
