The paper comes across as trivializing how much Erdos knew and more importantly understates his level of mathematics genius. Though, the author probably didn’t intend to and mentions how important his work is in today’s time period.
You probably don’t know anything about higher category theory, should I criticize you as a mathematician because you don’t know about it or don’t find it important?
Oh wait, you aren’t a mathematician, but you claim to be a software developer? Do you know anything about type theory? No, then how could you claim to be a software developer?
Are you a simply-minded programmer? Well, you must only solve low-hanging software problems! Wow! It is amazing how many software development problems you can solve with having such low skill knowledge in programming! That’s amazing!
But despite all of that, your work is still not considered deep and worthy of respect because you do not meet the standards of higher level theoretical computer science knowledge! But good for you despite that! Good job!
See how condescending that comes across?
