This matches my experience almost exactly, with one wrinkle: it took me two failed attempts before it stuck. I think the failures were the actual lesson. Did you nail it first try or learn it the hard way?

This, and the part that gets missed is it only works if you actually track it. Eyeballing it never once worked for me.
