I don't know about this gyration thingamajig, but usually I apply just enough force to split the roll in order to butter the insides. The only error occurs when I mistakenly use margarine instead of butter.
You must be mistaken. If you do not apply enough force to the roll it will not *truly* reach complete de-cohesion. Resulting in a malformed spread pattern that is inconsistent with standard spread practices.I never implied that I don't use enough force, just that I only apply just enough to start the divide. Keeping the forced as low as possible allows for minimal deviation along the initial divide line for easy spreading, unless the butter is frozen. In which case, you can hold the butter over the candle at the center of the dinner table to melt it just enough to enable it to spread easily.
Simply applying an adequate ammount of force is not in itself sufficient to maintain the cohesion of the material.
The force must be applied in one quick motion to seperate the unit without incurring significant gimbal counter friction.Incorrect, sir. Performing this process as you stated would only cause a terribly askew line of division, when having the two halves as equal as possible is clearly the most desirable result! Try it yourself. I will be surprised if you can divide the roll in the grossly incompetent way you described and even come close to effecting an even divide.
