 @b541bfe5 nitpick: this isnt actually pythagoras, this is just triangle equality (for any triangle ABC, a+b>c) 
 @b541bfe5 I literally use the Pythagorean theorem, trigonometry, and other geometry every single day—artist/designer 
 @b541bfe5 But if a squared + b squared = c squared, they're not saving any time walking along the hypotenuse. They're just wearing down the grass. 🤔 
 @b541bfe5 That’s just called poor design planning.
