TFA does not suggest that. Even if a coin is biased towards the side it started on, this wouldn’t carry over from one flip to the next.

It would be important to start the flip on the same side, but that’s doesn’t make the second flip dependent on the first

Hah, realized that after I posted and edited while you were commenting. It's a good point. My original assumption would you'd just pick it up and flip it; not attempt to put the same side face up each time.
