OK but I already have the subtype to subtype operations available bug-free today. Why do I care if they're implemented in geometric algebra or not, especially if it's less efficient?
- Nevermark 3y agoIf you have what you need, then you have what you need. If you were starting greenfield, geometric algebra probably simplifies more than you would guess, and represents more. When anything gets simpler, more consistent, and more powerful, most of us start having ideas that would never have occurred to us before. Same story as any other significant language and/or notation improvements. It is a mystery to me why it has taken so long to catch on and replace disparate less capable notations. Inertia I guess. Hard to change geometry across education all at once, but piecemeal would be very messy. I don’t know any reason it would be less efficient.
