I didn’t need proof myself, but I suppose it’s comforting nevertheless to have it mathematically confirmed.

was this really a worthwhile expenditure of effort? certainly mathematicians could have found something better to do with their time?

One one hand, sure, this seems like a waste of time. On the other, I did get paid to get a masters in literature. So I don't think I'm in a position to judge :P

I have an MfA. Nobody will convince me that our education holds no value.

and, fwiw, I’m not judging— and if you’ll check out my other comments, it didn’t take much for others to remind me how silly I was being. :)
