    And yet my point stands: if you need to do a lot of calculations at your job, you’d be stupid not to have a calculator in your pocket. And if you don’t, then the time it takes to find a calculator will be negligible.

        Uh what, that’s literally the point lol. The “you won’t have a calculator” has been complete and utter bullshit for literally over half a century.

          Bro, smartphones haven’t even existed for 20 years

          You’re talking as if everybody was carrying around pocket calculators the day they were invented

            No actually I literally specified people whose jobs require doing a lot of calculations lmao

            If your job required lots of calculations, and you heard about this fancy new thing called a pocket calculator, wouldn’t you go out and buy one?

              Of course. But, again, that’s not everyone. Not everyone went out and bought pocket calculators and carried them around everywhere.
