If you look at any leaf on any tree branch, it's similar to but not exactly a repetition of the previous branch.

We want to create a problem for the defense, a moment of indecision as they figure out how they want to play against whatever formation we may show. We get a slight edge this way. Also, we create the opportunity for a defense to make more mistakes.
