I wonder if anyone can do it in a couple of sentences...

Erm,

As you toddle orf down the runway, the power plant is temperature limited, unless its a cold day you might be torque limited, so as you gain speed, the relative airflow angle to the blade decreases, so the torque would decrease, but it doesn't because the blade coarsens.
