so upset this moment didn't get in the final cut

This was cut because even after discussion with with the team AND Baaulp himself I could not figure out why standing in a cross formation and rotating made them the Beatles. I did research to see if there was some famous Beatles album cover or photograph or performance where this connection was evoked and I failed to find anything. The only line of logic I could follow on it was they were the beatles because there are four of them and sometimes on stage they were arranged in a way that vaguely resembled a circle or a square as typically bands do that
