Nov 3, 2020 at 13:16 | comment | added | JoshuaZ | @WlodAA I'm not sure how you see these as failures. That we can't prove something isn't a failure, but an amazing demonstration of how interesting math is. In what other subjects can one ask clearly well-defined highly meaningful questions which a 9 year old can understand but we don't know the answers to? | |

Nov 2, 2020 at 16:08 | comment | added | Ivan Di Liberti | I strongly dislike this kind of answer. The answer per se is not bad, but I think we did enough in the direction of identifying mathematics with number theory in the imaginary of the generic human being. | |
