I disagree. I think some people have an inherently harder time understanding concepts like orbital resonaces and such when just presented with numbers. For some, animations of orbits helps illuminate the concept. This might be a way to use sound, and I can see where it could help a lot of people (students, perhaps) "get" orbital resonances.

Beyond that, I guess maybe you're right, and it serves no deeper value for research or understanding. But it it definitely NOT a fuzzy wuzzy bunny (although even a drawing of a fuzzy wuzzy bunny could be used to illustrate light and shadow, or colors, or drawing techinques).
