<br><font size=2 color=blue face="Arial">The "one point per X degrees" applies to the direction of the line with respect to the intended direction. If my flight path is 15 degrees off from vertical than I get the deduction. The execution of a snap simply translates the position of the plane from its original line (vertical, lets say) to a new line (still vertical, just in a different place than where it began).</font>
