arrangement of spreading ridges and transform faults. In the Pacific,
mantle breakthrough is a dilated small circle with a radial arrangement
of transform faults. Plate Tectonics ignores this difference, accords
it no significance whatsoever. That's three first-order
characteristics of transform faults ignored by plate tectonics:-
1. small-circle versus great-circle architecture of related spreading
ridges.
2. global continuity of helical spiral aggregates of transform faults
3. sequential offsets of transform terminations

Not to mention that Plate Tectonics has no explanation at all what
transform faults actually a-
