It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

What is a hook? Not a spoke hook like I thought.
huh, I thought car rims also had this ridge for the bead to sit in.
From the article description I think the car tire has a U shape, or maybe think of it as a J shape for the bead. The hooked tires have a G-ish shape, where the top of the outside of the bead wall has the 'hook.'
I just did a quick search, and I think that's exactly it: https://blog.flocycling.com/carbon-wheels/hooked-vs-hookless-rims/
