Lyxen made their basic assumption clear, this past post was a very good succinct summary of the point of departure re: trigger timing. It’s wrong, everyone in this thread agrees on that, but there is NO more basic assumption that anyone can hope to appeal to in order to get them to re-examine their position. Either you accept that you leave two creatures’ reach simultaneously, or you believe that time is so granular that we need to be calculating angles and tracking down to the millisecond whose OA is triggered “first,” and waiting for it to resolve before letting that creature move one micrometer further to trigger a second OA. So stop trying guys, and let it die, it’s overrrrrr
While we at D&D Beyond support debate, this thread has devolved beyond that point into a circular argument. We remind users to be respectful of each other, to refrain from personal attacks and to take each others time into consideration.

I'm going to make this way harder than it needs to be.
