I really value how open they are being about its limitations.
I often paste error messages with context into the chat and ask what's wrong.
Certainly, here's an exponential equation that can be challenging to solve for integer solutions:
2^x+3^y=7^z
This equation involves three variables, x, y, and z, and requires finding integer values for these variables that satisfy the equation. This type of equation is known as a Diophantine equation, and solving it can be quite challenging, especially for larger values of x, y, and z.

Note too that the numbers are standardized, e.g. floats are defined by IEEE 754 standard. Numbers in this format have specialized hardware to do math with them, so when considering which number format to use it's difficult to get outside of the established ones (foat32, float16, int8).
Why not just trust doctors? Let medical professionals make the decision? How about considering the children you want to hurt instead of your feelings about whether trans people are icky.
2. They benefit from having extra time to make a decision. When you (unnaturally, via the force of law) block children from receiving medical care then you cause them to develop sex characteristics that don't belong to them. If you think about it, you are doing to these children much worse than anything you are suggesting trans advocates are doing.
To put it another way: the way you feel about studying handedness being linked to COVID is the way I feel about studying an assumed link between race and "intelligence". It's not "otherwise interesting" at all. It's ignorant at best.
