Why do mathematicians care so much about the Riemann hypothesis? Why is it such a big deal if some numbers all fall on some line?

It's because of the product representation of the zeta function, the Riemann hypothesis tells us a lot about prime numbers and is extremely important in many places in number theory.

Even looking at this:>>12878962, I still don't know. Maybe if they say what are the consequences of it not being true then that would be illuminating against the previous list of the consequences which would follow if it were proven true.

Pi and primes are the “I fucking love science: math edition” pseuds care about.

Dirichlet series are intimately connected to the divisibility of integers. Typically, number-theoretic functions can be expressed as a series like this, and it just so happens that one of the simplest is the zeta function

As a physicist I gotta agree, but it's like letting your autistic mathbro just do his autistic shit. It's cute.
