OP, I think you might be colorblind.

The springs are now in parallel instead of series.

this would kill the green rope

I think anon means the rope in the middle. Not the one the hand is holding

>>16711545 (OP)
the ends of the green rope would be dangling down, while the black and red rope, as well as the springs would be unchanged, because somebody is holding the black rope. the black weight might also swing a little to the left, but it looks like it won't be far enough to turn this into a spring puzzle, thankfully. just whatever you do, don't let go of the black string, or someone will make you do math against your will.

unfathomably based

springs get shorter but the ropes are longer so the total length stays the same because they calculated it beforehand

>>16711545 (OP)
Planetary equilibrium remains the same.
Nothing ever happens.

What color would you call the rope tying the two springs together?

That's plainly lavender. You must be colorblind, sweaty.
