| Jun 10, 2023 at 19:21 | comment | added | Tri | You're operating on the assumption that the claim made by the editors is true. Looking at the three editions of Professor Birkhoff's "Lattice Theory" is some evidence that it is not true, although I agree that these days most people in universal algebra and lattice theory do not care about connections with other fields. Then again, I'm sure there are lots of fields in math without connections to other fields that do not get that treatment. You would think the editors in question would understand that. (I think they do.) | |

| Nov 10, 2015 at 15:42 | comment | added | Stiofán Fordham | The comment you make about "[the] name lattice theory is most unfortunate..." reminds me of a statement that William Fulton makes in his introduction to his book on toric geometry "... the original name of toric varieties [was] 'toric embeddings'..." and he goes on to ask "...whether there [would] have been more general interest in the subject [..] if this name had been avoided". | |

| Nov 10, 2015 at 6:13 | comment | added | Gejza Jenča | @ToddTrimble All Zeiberger's opinions are out of line; maybe even out of plane, space or $\mathbb R^4$. But sometimes he has a point :-) | |
| Nov 10, 2015 at 2:31 | comment | added | Todd Trimble | @GejzaJenča "Entertaining" might be one word for it, for some people... For me, I found it way out of line, and it was one of the things that truly pained (actually, offended) me to read while I was following the second link. | |
| Nov 9, 2015 at 21:07 | comment | added | Gejza Jenča | Doron Zeiberger's opinion on that (see math.rutgers.edu/~zeilberg/Opinion81.html ) was an entertaining read: "Because You Snubbed Others You Were Snubbed, and Those Who Snubbed You Shall Be Snubbed". | |
