So when you sneer that rules and notation are different, you don't know what those words mean.

Or you're so devoid of internality that when someone says 'imagine a different notation,' you literally can't.

There’s no pretending, It’s there in the textbooks

Show me any textbook that gets the answers you insist on. Show me one textbook where a(b+c)^2^ squares a.

says the actual person who doesn't know what they mean 😂

Yes, you literally can't go rewriting all the rules of Maths that we've had for centuries just because you randomly want to do something different now that we've decided to add Brackets to it 😂 Your whole argument is based on pretending that all the rules of Maths were all written at the same time 🤣🤣🤣

Show me any textbook that gets the answers you insist on

Pick any of them which show a(b+c)=(ab+ac) 🙄

P.S. show me where the squared is in...

you know, the actual topic, which you're trying to avoid because you know you are wrong

Fuck where this started - you're here now, saying 2(8)^2^ is anything but 128. You're that wrong about basic fucking algebra, whilst sneering at everyone else.

Here's four textbooks across two centuries where a(b+c)^x^ is not (ac+bc)^x^.
