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!

Next time someone claims math isn't practical, show them this violation of commutative property that's costing players precious XP!
