| There's a large difference between "wrong for the given definitions" and "right in that context, but wrong for other definitions" though. |

| I think I am make a much more basic point than what you're talking about but then again I am not sure what you're tying to say here... |

| ▲ | zamadatix 3 hours ago | parent [-] | | The problem with the acceptance of the given proof of the abc conjecture is rooted in beliefs the proof had at least one erroneous step in its logic which leaves gaps not able to be filled back in without significant new work in the proof. It's not rooted in a difference of starting axioms, what Gödel wrote about, or what kind of truth there can be (though the foreignness has certainly never sped its review up). Your comment may have separate points to make about those things in general but it does not make the problem with the proposed proof the same as the issues which apply to all of mathematics. |
