Don't you think that's a bit of a strawman? The user is explaining how that number is pronounced in their native Swiss French. Clearly nobody is suggesting you have to learn French to say some numbers.

So Limbaugh measures art for how hard it is to make. Peeling potatoes is hard (I've been told). I would not claim that peeling potatoes is an art. Same with painting a house, or mining coal. I disagree that the only thing we get from e
