Well, yeah, it's 4chan, that's a given. What I'm trying to say is that it wasn't some Good Will Hunting situation. It was competent people doing what they do for a living.

Yeah. Good Will Hunting scripts make money...

I'm also not a fan of the title. They didn't "stumble upon" the proof, they walked directly towards it lol.
