Rumor has it that this was originally a route to an alternate ending, dubbed "garden" based on the unused track associated with it, but it was evidently cut and all that's left is this empty room.
But seriously, in order to get to failing forward you have to solve the red version of Laying The Foundation. (Warp to Laying The Foundation and turn around.)
it's just there because f-ck you that's why
I actually considered the term "Perception Swappers" but because of the step name, I just kept with Flipping Panels.
Well, there is the fact that they make bird sounds, and then there's the soundtrack cover... I just go with captain obvious names. Although I could probably take to calling them 'Birdcall Balls".
Oh, it would've been cruel if the sign was recycled. Especially for people who are trying to 100% the game (i.e. get all the signs and rooms) since if they already got the sign, they just wasted their time.
That is something I never knew until now. I guess I didn't take the title to heart enough. Usually what speedrunners will do (and what I did the first time too) is grab a red cube from the red cross and use that to propel themselves up to the ledge at the other end (thus confusing the meaning of the moral of the sign at the end).
For step 2, I call those things "portal windows."
For step 4 (which is indeed not at all obvious!), I once saw the term "riot balls" for those things. I also like to call them "chaos balls." At every place you visit, they destroy some form of regenerating white matter, often in a chain reaction style.
...and not even a sign at the end (not even a recycled one) :( It's almost like that unobtainable pink cube under the black spot in Impossible Paths .
