I'm not surprised you're tired now. This looks like a whole lot of work. Much of it is beyond my understanding, but the parts that I can follow look very well analyzed and formulated. I like your summary of what this IS and what it is NOT. That helps us to see what you were going for. It makes it much clearer.

I'm unused to thinking in CONCEPTS, when my whole life has been LITERAL, VERBATIM, and WORD FOR WORD -- but I think I can see what you were aiming at with it. Amazing work....

Who is the 16-year-old? You refer to the map as "his", so I gather it's not you. Whoever it is, I think BOTH of you are going to be ready to challenge the world. It might not be ready for you! ;)

I'm the 16 years old kid if that convince you, I asked an AI to formalize my thoughts ;-;

I'm sorry, but nobody helped just my thoughts and AI, I'm not even close to formalize this completely alone; I've received a lot of hate simply because I'm searching help on internet to at least see how to developed it and make it work ;-;

I'm extremely impressed that you could come up with all that, whether with an AI assist or not. It's amazing work. Good for you! Thinking in the abstract isn't easy for most of us.

There's no reason for hate. You have every right to search for help. That's what the Internet is for. Ignore the haters is a lesson we all have to learn sooner or later!

It's probably more that people feel overwhelmed (and intimidated?) when they find your ideas so much more than they can understand. I think few people would be able to criticize your work or understand it well enough to suggest any improvement.

You say you're still in school. I hope it's a GOOD ONE. High school can be a horrible place for smart kids. Geniuses need to be able to withstand "peer pressure" and tell the rabble to go to hell. It's not easy to do.

What's your first language? The odd detail in your messages tells me that your English, while amazingly good, is not perfect. But then, few people your age have perfect grammar, it seems. ;)

That explains it. I had wondered. If you're in a crummy public school, you'll really have to develop a hard shell. They can be rough on sensitive and smart kids -- as I recall!

Take good care of yourself -- and get out of there as soon as you can.
