| Jul 6, 2010 at 20:00 | comment | added | T.. | I added more on Hardy and Littlewood's contribution. The question is correctly described as being obvious and lacking evidence, it was elevated (intentionally or not) to conjecture status as a result of Hardy and Littlewood's paper, and any plausibility of that conjecture was shattered by the Hensley and Richards results. "Exploded" is a better descriptor than "refuted" or "resolved", since they did not fully disprove the conjecture, but reduced its falsity to a well-accepted family of hypotheses on the distribution of primes. | |

Explicate role of Hardy-Littlewood paper
