You haven’t walked through a “”1000 KT self created wind shear”, you have only changed your groundspeed by 2 kts. The fact that you turned around and re-label which is +ve and -ve destroyed your inertial reference frame.
This thread is moving fast and I'm at work so I can't get detailed until later, but yes this is exactly a 1000 knot self-created wind shear according to the premises of the windward turn theorists. Check it again.
