This is tracking the user's trajectory through the site, necessarily a tree, not the network structure of W itself.


How is the user journey through the site necessarily a tree? What prevents the user to create loops through their journey?


Not an absolute statement, just that it resembles a tree more closely as you branch off slicking on hyperlinks.


Oo, yeah, that's a good point! I totally see why it was done this way now.

Though I do still think it would be cool to have a toggleable overlay or something that shows the cyclic connections!


That would be technically more "accurate", but it doesn't yield more useful information and ends up being harder to read.
