Tetrahedron: The Leak in the Tetrahedron's Corners:

"Energy bounces around in triangles working toward the narrowest vertex, where the impossibility of more than one line going through any one point at any one time imposes a twist vertex exit at the corners of all polyhedra. Therefore, all triangles and tetrahedra 'leak' energy but when doing so between two similar corresponding vertexes-interconnected tetrahedra, the leaks from one become the filling of the other."
