Very interesting! The choice with the subnetting is a bit odd to me, it's surprising that you got the hosts talking to each other with that addressing. I would have chosen a proper /30 between the two computers, that would be 10.0.0.1/30 and 10.0.0.2/30.

    10.0.0.0 network address
    10.0.0.1 host (usable)
    10.0.0.2 host (usable)
    10.0.0.3 broadcast address

Nice writeup nonetheless!
