Note that the standard TP with one twin at rest is a limiting case of my claim, that longer paths require MORE acceleration for the twins to be juxtaposed when the thought experiment ends. Brent's diagram is misleading. If you want a proof, you won't find it in his diagram, which is nothing more than an assumption.
