I love how the text seems to be right from the time where the symbol was already abstract, but it was still used as an et ligature instead of a standalone symbol

Note that it speaks of the "official version" in the next sentence, which seems to me like there will be inofficial versions which requires a more permissive license

But we'll see

The effective vibe is much more important than any underlying biology.

Tomatoes are vegetables.

your first line is correct, but while it looks like 1 (and it might be under different conventions), evaluating according to standard rules (left to right if not disambiguated by pemdas) yields

2(2+2)/2(2+2)
= 2(4)/2(4)
= 2*4/2*4
= 8/2*4
= 4*4
= 16

Using implicit multiplication in quotients is weird and really shouldn't happen, this would usually be written as 8/(2*(2+2)) or 8/2*(2+2) and both are much clearer

Your second argument only works if you treat 2(2+2) as a single "thing", which it looks like, but isn't, in this case
