    It is not our(this forum’s) job to explain to you how primes work. Despite having done so anyway, it is also not our responsibility to somehow have to defend or convince you of how the math rules work.

    Let’s review:
    1. Regardless of semantics and whether you understand it or not, 1 is not a prime number.
    2. The game even puts a note with listed primes that very specifically does not include 1.
    3. The definition of a prime is any number that can only be divided by two separate numbers: itself and 1.
    4. Itself and 1 are not two separate numbers.
    Wrong. If you paid attention in Algebra, a prime number cannot be divided by itself or 1. Literally no math teacher will tell you they have to be separate.

    I’m sure they taught you how to read dictionaries then, no? Unfortunately for you Wikipedia is not wrong this time.

    You died. Get over it.

    One is the smallest prime number and you would have known this if you stayed awake during Math.

    I went to American public schools. Why would I ever trust the teachers?

    You realize the bottom of the page has sources, yes? And that were I writing an academic paper, I would cite those and not Wikipedia, yes?

    Sadly, there is nothing academic about this discussion with you. Still plenty of time to educate yourself before the Fall, when Endwalker comes out!
