with no intuition and no exact math (just reason)... if you split the wire (wrapped tightly around) in two halves (180° apart) then splice in a couple five foot Sections, much of the wire would be a couple feet off the surface. ...Now imagine splicing in that 10' section in quarters,... spliced in at 90° apart. . those original arcs are pushed off more than a finger.
