Side note, in my experience people often misuse the word “math” to mean "arithmetic, as in “I did the math” or “Your math is wrong” when they’re just adding up some numbers lol.
yeah that one can be pretty rough too. i think i’ve become a bit desensitized to it over the years, and paul lockhart’s lament has helped me cope a bit, but the pain is still there.
