| Sep 24, 2023 at 13:49 | comment | added | Timothy Chow | @HollisWilliams I think the point of the "fun" comment is that the title question, "Why study finite topological spaces?" is different from the question that appears lower down, "How have finite topological spaces been used to yield insights into other parts of mathematics?" | |

| Sep 21, 2023 at 23:54 | comment | added | LSpice | Name of @Pedro's reference: Barmak - Algebraic Topology of Finite Topological Spaces and Applications. \\ I couldn't understand “And what would be some instances where ‘standard circumlocutions’ used to avoid them?”, and thought a word might be missing. I edited in one guess (another one was ‘of … that’ in place of ‘where …’), which I hope was correct, but of course please feel free to change it if it was not, in which case my apologies. | |
