Well, remember that all protons are not identical and one must use the
'magic individual combination of RF freq and field strength' to get a proton
to flip.

That simply means oine could keep the field constant and vary the RF freq or
keep the RF freq constant and vary the field.  Really doesn't matter to the
protons but one way may be much, much simpler to implement than the other.

BTW the percent change in one or the other is small e.g. about 0.1 % would
cover all protons.
