Isn’t + a variable number of succ’s? Why does x break decidability, but + does not? It seems to me you should be able to define a second order Presburger system with + replacing succ, and x replacing + to restore decidability. Or is there s

Does anyone have an intuition for why Presburger arithmetic is decidable, but once you introduce x, it is not? If + can be rewritten as repeated succ, (which is decidable) and x can be rewritten as repeated +, then it seems logical that x
