His quote is literal. Like if you were trying to figure out a math problem, but got into a loop of literally using the same equations and numbers every single time instead of trying new formulas. Like no matter how many times you put 2+2 in your calculator it will always say 4.

Idk how you misinterpreted that so poorly.
