I mean the animation is inherently ambiguous. It is not one thing or the other. There's no right and wrong.
OK, I wouldn't but it does look like some classify ambiguous visual stimuli as optical illusions of a sort, but they're not the classic type where appearances are different from reality. The latter are more respectful of the meaning of "illusion".
Edit: The opening description is a bit like saying: This Necker Cube (
Wikipedia) was really a cube with the bottom surface visible to the viewer. If you can (also) see a cube where the top surface is visible, you're not seeing what is really there.
