Stan's Curious Curtain Video

Recently JB posted to one of my videos asking me to perform the shots in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJTJh05FEKw&t=0s In looking at it, I noticed something curious. If you look at all the hole reinforcers on the table they are pure white, except the one the cue ball sits on. In addition, there is a patch of chalk dust in a triangular pattern in front of the reinforcer. Anybody who uses reinforcers knows that the cloth turns darker after the cue ball runs over it enough times, and chalk builds up on the table after many, many tip/cue ball impacts. I think we can all agree that these statements are clearly true. As a side note, I have the same color cloth and Masters chalk turns dark grey on the cloth. How does this happen when, according to the video, this is Stan's first attempt at this shot? To the cult members, this may be a laughable thing to bring up, but sometimes the best theories in science are doomed when they can't explain the simplest, most innocent observations. Anybody care to take a stab at it?
