Whoa!
This is getting a bit thick now.
I can assure you that this is not the cause of any power
under a base plate.
Not to keep this thread going but it is getting into the
realm of extremely bad science and voodoo mechanics.

Close enough for government work as they used to say. They
both move and
grind what is beneath them.
Given enough weight from the tower the surface concrete will
turn into a
fine powder by the motion of the steel base plate. This will
act as a
lubricant.
Remove a plate that has been in place for many years and see
for yourself.
