looking more into Fermat’s Last Theorem and it’s kinda bullshit that Wiles “solved it”.
Frey and Ribet did the part that is actually relevant to the classic Fermat formulation. Wiles gave a partial solution to a different problem after they proved what such a solution would imply.
so I guess I’m just grumpy about that now. thoughts welcome.
I think Fermat had a simple solution and burned the keys. The solution seems so convoluted, unsatisfying.
