Yes it is, precisely right.

As such the low heat keeps the bottom from crisping, but the lift, roll
and separate motion yield large fluffy moist curds.

It reduces the size of the curds every time, and that is what makes the
rubbery.

You won't know this unless or until you try my method for comparison.

I graduated from yours.

I developed mine a few years ago and have never looked back.

I also like to add a little bit of water to my eggs and a pinch of salt.

The heavy cream, or even half and half is just a bit to watery in the
finaly product.
