Have you talked to your users?

I've spent decades studying YEC and Christian apologetics. I even ran a Bible study for four years, and I was on the YouTube YEC debate circuit for a while. I don't know if that counts as "talking to my users" but I'm not going in to this cold.

In fact, the reason I wrote this installment in the series is because I know that apologists often cite the (alleged) "purity" of mathematical truth as evidence for the existence of God and I wanted to nip that argument in the bud.
