No one said they would be. They would be different than the belt.

I mean you can Google this if you don’t want to believe me. The answer is it moves and not only that it moves as if the belt wasn’t even there.

The wheels are free. Like a hot wheels car.

The wheels can spin 1000 revolutions a minute and the plan doesn't move (i.e. treadmill).

And with the thrust of a jet plane, you could put a brake on the wheels so they don't spin and the thrust would still be sufficient to push the plane into liftoff.
