It's also useful to think of the "ground" plane as a sort of well of potential charger carriers that the conventional current model overlooks. Aside from simultaneously visualising what's happening inside simple ICs like BJTs / MOSFETs and the circuit diagrams I've found it a useful way for checking for common mode noise in circuit and PCB design.

I guess this makes me a lunatic? Don't know until we test it;

Someone give me an ~~asylum~~ makerspace to takeover!
