There may have been a discontinuity at the beginning of time... but there was nobody there to observe it. More seriously, the parent is saying that it always looks continuous linear when you're observing the last short period of time, whereas the OP (and many others) are constantly implying that there are recent discontinuities.
I think they read curve and didn't read continuous.
Which ends up making some beautiful irony. One small seemingly trivial point fucked everything up. Even a single word can drastically change everything. The importance of subtlety being my entire point ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
