Why is it that we intuitively understand that P probably does not equal NP but we can't describe it?

P=NP. Everything is just one big tessellation. $1,000,000 please. Thank you.

Because proving an answer is much harder than intuiting an answer.
It's easy to look at something like the collatz conjecture and say; "yeah the natural numbers probably all go to 1". But proving it is so challenging it may not even be possible with modern mathematics.

that's not really the same though. we could totally find a number, it's not necessarily an impossibility. however, the idea of all problems having a simple solution seems to violate my day to day experience

P=NP. Yes. Find a total composite g tessellation mapping the real numbers and and the fundamental theorem of algebra.

If P = NP then it would be easy to prove.
