"Le but ultime pour les mathématiciens, c'est que l'architecture soit correcte. Dans toutes les mathématiques que j'ai faites, le point essentiel était de trouver l'architecture correcte. C'est comme construire un pont. Une fois que les grandes lignes de la structure sont correctes, les détails s'ajustent miraculeusement." – Freeman Dyson (1923-2020)

After teaching us how other derive from very low-level "axiomatic" rules, even for the creation of a variable ..

.. the book now encourages to do shortened derivations which I find very unnerving because who decides what is "obvious" and what is not?
