I believe that minimizes capacitance. My question is why diagonal at all. Maybe it helps with adhesion during the manufacturing process?

Capacitance between turns, specifically. Provides e-field shielding too.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
