This is awesome. I wished they taught something like this in high school instead of God knows what's being taught nowadays.

This is generally how I think of all the sciences and math at school level. Everyone would retain a lot more if we taught them "the how" we discovered magnetism, acidity, DNA, and complex numbers than what we currently do, which is just teaching them the formulas and the conclusions. With a framework it's easier to learn the "what".

Sadly you dont have much time to do those things unless you do extracurricular classes.
