@BlokchainB quoted @adlai

What do you mean exactly when you say this
it's about the distribution of all the primes, considered as a single mathematical spectrum.

before I convince myself that composing a generic response isn't a complete waste of time; do you have any rigorous familiarity with any mathematics-adjacent disciplines? music is the best candidate, although for all I know you're some STEM graduate simply looking for mathematical intuition that your curriculum never provided... and honestly I don't get anything useful from either "God Family Bitcoin" nor the remainder of your SN bio, because it seems futile to spend too much more time geeking out about my audience than actually typing the response.

so while "I built my own house using compass and straightedge but never measured even once before cutting" is useful information, I'm hoping for something closer to "I actually dropped out of music school after three semesters", or at least, "I worked lighting for a theatre for a few months as a teenager".

otherwise, I'm probably going to quote either Plato's Academy or Dante's Inferno.

Bingo!

thanks; now I have twice as many loseable drafts to think about... let's categorise most coarsely: requests for generally understandable metaphors can be "shower thoughts", while the can is reserved for thinking about heavy metaphors for specific domains that are supposed to make a splash.
