A circle \Omega is said to be \emph{friendly} if there exist distinct circles \omega_1, \omega_2, \ldots, \omega_{2020}, such that for all 1\le i\le2020, \omega_i is tangent to \Gamma, \Omega, and \omega_{i+1}. (Here, \omega_{2021} = \omega_1.) For each point P in the plane, let f(P) denote the sum of the areas of all friendly circles centered at P. If A and B are points such that OA=\frac12 and OB=\frac13, determine f(A)-f(B).
