    infinitesimally

    I was typing in a rush and mistyped, but you understand what I meant.

    Simplify! That’s why they use 5 and not 3.14.

    That’s a bullshit excuse. 3 could be argued but 5 is straight disinformation. And I do multiplication of decimals in my head because I was taught how to in school, that’s how far behind the US system is.

      That’s impressive. Mental math isn’t one of my talents to be honest. And let’s agree to disagree about the disinformation.

        It’s a skill like any other, you have to be taught it to learn it, and you need practice to get better.

            I find the basic building blocks of comprehension to be important.
