I really want to have a good discussion about this

says person who deleted their previous post when I proved how wrong it was 😂

it is not possible with your debate style

There's no debate - the rules are in Maths textbooks, which you want to pretend don't exist

You fail to understand the argument your opponent is making

You haven't got one. That's why you keep pretending Maths textbooks don't exist

By divorcing each partial statement from its surrounding context

says person who deleted one of their posts to remove the context. 😂 The context is the rules of Maths, in case you needed to be reminded 😂

you are likely to change its meaning

Nope. I'm still talking about the rules of Maths 😂

You are not making a point of your own

Ok, so here you are admitting to comprehension problems. Which part did you not understand in addition and subtraction can be done in any order? 😂

You are simply stating facts, opinions, or misunderstandings as if they are self-evidently true

You left out backing it up with textbook screenshots and worked examples 😂

without knowing why you believe them to be true.

There's no belief involved. It's easy enough to prove it yourself by doing the Maths 😂

it’s very easy to state two contradictory things without realizing it

And yet I never have. Why do you think that is? 😂

“No they can’t. The rules are universal”

Which is correct

“It’s only a convention, not a rule, as just proven”

Which is also correct, and in no way contradicts the previous point, and I have no idea why you think it does! 😂 The first point is about the rules, and the second point is about conventions, which isn't even the same thing

this also makes it hard for people to find the mistakes

That's because I'm not making any 😂

I can see that you don’t fully understand what I mean by “operator precedence”

Says person who in their other post claimed "addition first" for -1+3+2 is -(1+3+2) = -6, and not +(3+2)-1=4 😂

If your opponent also used this debate style,

Which you don't, given you have no evidence whatsoever to back up your points with 😂

ends up entirely divorced from the initial meaning

I've been on-point the whole time, and you keep trying to deflect from how wrong your statements are 😂

Please do not take these as insults

Well, obviously not, given I just proved they were all wrong 😂

allows you to understand why people know the brackets matter.

Except I've proven, repeatedly, that they don't, and so now you're trying to deflect from that (and deleted one of your posts to hide the evidence of how wrong you are) 😂
