Vinzent solved the mystery, he says “Precisely. The proof was just for the  
wrong engine”. This explains both the funny fact with the proof and what  
cause the proof to be wrong in that case. If you use a proof made for  
Venus, on Earth, proof will be wrong.

Learned interesting things in that topic.
