and like most importantly in this case is that that phantom "up" does still affect things, like "feeling" it there is what gives you the right timing for a natural cadence

just see such things, approaching it so "cerebrally" and from a fundamentally outsider perspective, as being maybe shortcuts for some people, but things that become a huge problem later and can't be unlearned. stuff like "just imagine this sound as this similar, but not the same sound in your native tongue", it might get you speaking more quickly, but it pretty much calcifies a foreign accent, or like memorising 漢字 using that method you guys liked, maybe most people can cram them in more quickly that way, but they'll end up with an entirely different map of associations for each radical and character that impedes fluency later on

and, with this particular case, i know i was able to understand it intuitively within the first few minutes rather than breaking it down headily this way just from hearing a couple of natives pronounce it alone and then in example words and sentences at different speeds, so that the "feeling" of "down-up" is still there even when in practice the up is shonked away, instead of this sort of "well, sometimes it's there and sometimes it's not, and just memorise and remember these different cases" complication of things

being taught that way is a good thing, though, keeping the same intuition/internal "image" of the thing as a native speaker. if students couldn't "feel" right away without having to think that it works this way, with the "up" part of the down-up being absorbed when moving quickly into the next syllable, then that's a problem of not hearing it in practice enough from a few different native accents while being introduced

eh, this is kinda dumb, like just listening to to natives you can get this intuitively right off, and trying to memorise it differently would mess with your phonotactics...
