Default This has me puzzled (resistor change)

In article ,
says...

I was always under the impression that film resistors are identical
(electrically), and their only difference is appearance. Now I learn
that is not true.....

WHY?????


So IIUC he changes the R value and it no longer oscillates. Presumably he's thereby changed the loop gain. Where is the surprise?




Could it have been possiable that the new resistor was bad, or maybe the
color code was read wrong so the wrong value was put in ?
