What a freak I am.... as soon as I read that phrase everything just clicked into place, thank you!!
I have a hexagon WIP that I've been doing for over a year, it's all handpiecing and I tend to work on it when I want to sew but don't really want to think or concentrate, just handsew. So I've done millions (maybe not quite millions, but definitely lots) of Y seams! I didn't even realise.
And now that you've said that, I can "see" in my mind exactly how it goes. I was having trouble getting my head around it, but now it's crystal clear.
Funny how something that's obvious can be the difference! LOL
