Math's goal is not to trick people with silly mind games, especially when it's not necessary. This probably got big on the internet because we are bored.
edit:although if people want to keep arguing about this then by all means continue to do so, i'm just sayin
the problem is, someone did, and some just can't sleep without knowing what the hell happens, math is supposed to be "perfect" as in, no room for error, either you are right, or you are wrong, this kinda thing doesn't have a known answer, people attempt to give it one.
it's my take on the business, i just sit back, lol a bit, and maybe learn something new.
