800 Pages With No Mistakes
Trust me, I've seen enough "revolutionary" proofs to last seven academic careers. The Millennium Prize Problems are math's equivalent of climbing Everest in flip-flops—seven unsolved mathematical mountains with a million-dollar bounty each. Every month some bright-eyed optimist waltzes into my office with "the solution" scribbled on napkins. Sure, and I'm secretly Fields Medal material who just enjoys grading calculus exams for fun. The mathematical community doesn't just press X to doubt—we smash that button until it breaks. Remember when that one guy claimed to solve P vs NP and then his proof collapsed faster than my will to live during faculty meetings? Good times.

Quantum Mechanics: The "Easy" Option
The textbook boldly claims "quantum mechanics is technically much easier than classical mechanics" and I've never pressed X to doubt so hard in my life! That's like saying black holes are just spicy gravity wells! Anyone who's wrestled with Schrödinger's equation knows it's not just "classical mechanics with a few gimmicks" - it's a mathematical fever dream where particles exist everywhere and nowhere simultaneously! The universe is basically trolling physicists at the quantum level, and this textbook has the AUDACITY to call it "easier"? *maniacal scientist laughter*

Theoretical Physicists Press X To Doubt Reality
Theoretical physicists and doubt have a fascinating relationship—they simply press X to dismiss it. While experimental physicists need evidence, theoreticians just need a whiteboard and the audacity to say "consider a spherical cow." The background text ironically argues science isn't purely mathematical, meanwhile theoretical physicists are calculating whether the universe is a hologram projected from a 2D surface. Classic.
