    Yes, yes… it’s fine to acknowledge the existence of math notation that most people will never use.

    Tom Warren chose to fixate on a specific typeface (not math) and use that as an excuse to criticize people for their valid comparison to something that predates it. He followed up by declaring that he was “right” and others were “wrong”. Is he a four-year-old?

    I can’t think of a more snide, self-aggrandizing way to participate in the conversation. It was unnecessary, rude, and not even technically correct*, which is why he has earned my mocking comment in response.

    *(We can see in the replies that the glyph he shows to support his position is in fact not the same as the logo being discussed.)
