You are pardoned, and that is a gallant attempt to save Dave from
where he is at on this, but you are also wrong. "Compression" is an artifact of perspective, nothing more. In time, you will learn to see
it with the naked eye, before hoisting the camera up. The lesson of the viewing frame is a very valuable one, even if it looks silly.
