 But perhaps it doesn't look quite as natural. I will trust the original
 article to do the right thing here and remove the bend altogether.

+The Context of a Bend
+---------------------

+
+My comment: everything until this sentence is clear. However, "unit areas" is
+misleading: there is little reason to normalize areas, but leave the distances
+intact (if we'd like to normalize areas, it would make sense to square-root
+them).
+
+Removing that removes changes the meaning of the sentence that **euclidean
+distance** is normalized (the composite of the bend properties), rather than
+a single component.
