1. Because you are unique and irreproducible: see number two;
2. Entasis only works with at least four identical entatic entities
closely spaced in a row when viewed from a distance;
3. There are viewing distance limitations to number two which you
exceed. I don't see any entasis at your middle. Ironically then, the
illusion succeeds.

HTH,
