Minecraft Anvilling Is Not Commutative

When mathematicians play Minecraft and discover that order matters! In math, commutative operations give the same result regardless of order (like 2+3=3+2). But in Minecraft's anvil mechanics, swapping the order of identical diamond swords dramatically changes the enchantment cost—37 vs 17 experience points! The facial expressions perfectly capture that moment when your brain short-circuits trying to reconcile game logic with mathematical principles. Next time someone claims math isn't practical, show them this violation of commutative property that's costing players precious XP!
