Bug Report: Construct 7 mechanic is wrong

[Fynlar]

You've been given an explanation of a more complicated rule because, as you've stated previously, the more complicated rule confuses you even more.

Simply adding the clause "a prime number cannot be 1 / must also be greater than 1" would not have been confusing, and would have resolved the entire issue.

The stuff that is confusing to me is stuff like the "fundamental theorem of arithmetic", which is apparently something advanced enough such that I never heard about it in grade school and only heard about in this thread. I don't know why this "rule" exists, nor do I care. Regardless, since it never came up when I learned about prime numbers, it doesn't do much to combat the (apparently erroneous) idea that 1 might be a prime number.

When someone is explaining something and you don't get it, you should ask questions.

Again, there wasn't anything I "didn't get". To me back then, 1 being a prime number was just something that made sense, so there was no question to ask.

You can't ask a question you never had in the first place.

Don't pretend to be a victim of some bad educational system.

Don't tell me what I can't do.

Many people would agree the US education system sucks, anyway. Don't act like it's immune to criticism.

It does suck so no point acting like you are a victim when the reality is everyone is a product of their own inability or ability either by choice or otheriwise.

In short those that care about their education are often proactive and inquisitive by nature.

What is this

I just told you that everyone is a victim of a bad educational system and to that, you reply with "Many people would agree the US education system sucks, don't act like it's immune to criticism". ​You just see me as a person you must argue with, don't you?

Don't tell me what I can't do.

I never did though. It is all in your head.

Edit:

I'm not sure what point there is to your line of thinking, though. Just because "everyone" has been a "victim" of something (citation needed, btw), there's suddenly "no point" in bringing up its flaws?

The biggest flaw of the educational system is that it still exists. It conditions people to go with the flow and have the information served to them even if they are unwilling to receive it. So you have a group of tired adults who are held responsible for educating an ungrateful, lazy and annoying group of kids. Usually, they stay the same after leaving school and it is always apparent. They need to pay me millions per month to put myself through this type of torture and utter anguish.

it makes me feel better to know that something I was wrong about wasn't my own fault.

Why are we talking about winter and fall, when we are clearly in spring right now.
