Interestingly, this type of behavior allows inductor and transformer circuits to have non-trivial amounts of gain. Before high power semiconductors became available, people would construct all sorts of control and power regulation systems based on them.

Really enjoyed the article - well written and engaging! Thanks for sharing. Do you plan to write a follow-up on hysteresis?
Thank you for yet another interesting and well written article!
