If you don't want to use ∀? ∀+ ∀* ∀$ in a sentence,
that's certainly your choice to make.
It's not a choice which encourages
efforts to understand you.

François Viète, Seigneur de la Bigotière
(Latin: Franciscus Vieta; 1540 – 23 February 1603)
| In his dedication of the Isagoge to
| Catherine de Parthenay, Viète wrote:
|
| "These things which are new are wont in the beginning
| to be set forth rudely and formlessly and must then
| be polished and perfected in succeeding centuries.
| Behold, the art which I present is new,
| but in truth so old,
| so spoiled and defiled by the barbarians,
| that I considered it necessary,
| in order to introduce an entirely new form into it,
| to think out and publish a new vocabulary,
| having gotten rid of all its pseudo-technical terms..."
Consider
| ∀x:B(x) ⇒ B(t)
| ∀x:(B⇒C(x)) ⇒ (B⇒∀x:C(x))
| B(x) ⊢ ∀x:B(x)
| ∃x:B(x) ⇔ ¬∀x:¬B(x)
Is it possible that
several centuries of polishing and perfecting
have given us, in 2024, something which
François Viète had only set out in search of?
I am not a giant.
However, I can stand on giants' shoulders.
Since I can, why shouldn't I?
