I'd be amazed if anyone disagreed.

Golf score, right?

So what happens when 45 becomes 47?

92

47 is irrelevant as it isn't expressed in the equation.

I don't believe I was commenting on the math aspect...

Actually it's not an equation so.....

You're right if you're using the prescriptive aspect of the word. I was using the colloquial approach where equation is often associated with a mathematical statement.

Well at least you admit your mistake... Not a thing most leftists do

I am finding that it's not so much about right or wrong, it's really about how things are being interpreted. Prescriptivism and descriptivism are things that need to be taught in middle school. Of course, their importance as well. Because I've been looking at how the left and right talk to each other, and that's one of the biggest issues that I see which causes these fiery debates which resorts to... chaotic discourse. We need to start seeing how the other person defines what they're saying, instead of seeing our definitions as the correct one. If we can speak to how the other person defines something, while establishing which approach is being used, I think that'll help us in the long run.

Well, I agree with you on that.
But... It's an inequality.

Less destructive too!

At the quantum level that's not necessarily true.

Explain.
The larger the principal quantum number, which has integral values beginning with one, the greater the energy is and the farther the electron is likely to be from the nucleus. ... The principal quantum number and three others are sufficient to characterize uniquely each electron in an atom.

You gotta go smaller. The smaller you go the less certain the laws of physics become.
