GP explicitly stated they might be misunderstanding. If you see how they misunderstood, perhaps you could explain. An appeal to authority isn't much of an explanation.

- cyphar 1y agoWhich part of this comment: > Maybe the article is dumbing it down too much, but the conclusion seems unsurprising. Why shouldn't a single unknotting do double-duty in some cases? is them "explicitly stat[ing] they might be misunderstanding"? At best they said that the article is at fault for oversimplifying the topic.
- argomo 1y agoAuthor of the comment you're quoting, and it is indeed my roundabout way of suggesting I'm missing something. Clearly, I'm not a knot theory expert, but the way the article presents it makes me wonder what extra nuance motivated the original (now falsified) conjecture.
