Summary

The descriptions of Cubic interpolation and Cubic Value on the Interpolation (Easing) page were circular and vague (and used "effect" where "affect" was meant). This rewrites both subsections under Using the Graph Editor and cleans up inconsistent capitalization.

What changed

  • Cubic interpolation — now described as an easing function between one key and the next (like a cubic Bezier curve in CSS) that always lands exactly on the keyed values, set from the Interpolation Panel.
  • Cubic Value — now described as draggable Bezier handles on the Graph Editor (similar to After Effects), with a note on the small extra data cost (storing each handle's X/Y) and the key benefit: overshoot. Includes the 0-to-0 example showing Cubic Value can animate past the final value while Cubic interpolation cannot.
  • Normalized capitalization of Graph Editor throughout the page.

Notes

  • The #using-cubic-value anchor is preserved.
  • No links changed.

Rewrite the two Graph Editor subsections that previously described
Cubic interpolation and Cubic Value in circular, vague terms:

- Cubic interpolation: explain it as an easing function between keys
  (like a cubic Bezier in CSS) that always lands on keyed values.
- Cubic Value: explain the draggable Graph Editor handles (like After
  Effects), the small extra data cost, and the key overshoot behavior
  (e.g. 0 to 0 can still animate past the value).

Also fix 'effect' -> implied 'affect' rewrite and normalize
capitalization of Graph Editor throughout the page.
