You're right. But then again, lots of scaffolding gets discarded when an arch gets constructed also.

- mananaysiempre 3y agoLest you disregard this as completely useless superstructure, note that basically the entirety of the theory of stochastic processes, starting with Brownian motion, is positively infested with continuous everywhere nondifferentiable functions; while the existence of a nonconstant infinitely smooth function with an identically zero Taylor series is what permits the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transition to exist. So while the weird animals of elementary real analysis are perhaps not the most important thing in the world, they are far from irrelevant to it.
