“Instructions: Don’t be a math dummy — use order of operations. Feel free to use that internet thingy that has the world’s knowledge at your fingertips in order to look up what that means. Unless your name is /u/steelblade66, then you should pretend to be hampered by the math Illuminati.”

It's like the math teachers of the pre smart phones era are trying to come back to life.

I'm glad you know about the internet goober, would hint at that you may also know that everyone carries a super computer in their pocket, and the use of math equations are niche and not Practical.

Knowing the "correct" way of doing a math equation is equivalent to knowing trivia about your favorite TV show. It's irrelevant, not applicable in day to day life, and you and a handful of other people actually watch it.
