The mathematical precision of this joke is *chef's kiss*. If one tool is a "pair of pliers" despite being a single object, then logically two of them should be... what exactly? A squared pair? A pair of pairs? The linguistic paradox here perfectly captures how technical terminology often defies common sense—just like how we say "a pair of scissors" for one cutting tool. Engineers and mathematicians everywhere are silently having existential crises over this semantic conundrum while reorganizing their toolboxes. Next up: explaining why we drive on parkways but park on driveways.
