>>9733681It is utter bullshit, and papers over the fact that current maths is hogwash.
Some day in the future people will look back at this shit and laugh with derision.
Student: "How the fuck did they work with that crap?"
Teacher: "Hey don't be too harsh on them, did you know that for a long time they had no concept of zero until the Babylonians introduced the term."
Student: "Oh lol! But they still put up with that crap when it was more than obvious that something was fundamentally wrong?"
Teacher: "Not only did they put up with it, but there were many people who defended it! Just like people opposed Darwin's theory of evolution for many years, and called him a crank!"
Student: "But I don't understand, it was so obviously wrong, why work with a system that had such fundamental flaws?"
Teacher: "Well, it was just what they knew at the time and they hadn't reached the conceptual understanding that we have today, thanks to the breakthroughs in mathematics which occurred in the 23rd century. Think of it this way, the Romans did pretty well with their archaic numerical system, it worked for them, well, in the same way the old system worked for the people of the 21st century."
Face the facts. You fuckers who defend this shit are going to be seen as the dinosaurs of maths. Bet you will all remain plenty quiet when this crap is finally overthrown and revealed for the illogical bullshit it is. But more likely you will say " I always suspected there wasn't something right about the maths of my day." You fuckers.
