The concept is routinely taught as a matter of judgement. It is more usefully written as an identity. Let C be the consumption rate of a force in the field and T(r) the sustained throughput that can be delivered to it at distance r from the last high-capacity transfer point. Stock at the front then evolves as . Culmination is the radius at which delivery equals consumption. Beyond it the force draws down accumulated stock and the…
