I understand precisely what adastra22 meant from the moment I read it. Unfortunately two people now have rushed to unkind characteristics of what that (perfectly sensible) meaning was.
sure, what was written was sensible but has no bearing on the proof. speculation isn't critical thinking, as adastra22 says, be careful to what you are responding to. my point is the lack of rigor and understanding because the proof isnt being discussed, hand waving about an unread and very important mathematical work is irresponsible. thats MY point
