>> It also gets in the way of elegance and truth.

Where did that come from in the article?

I revisited that article and ... now I have no idea. Maybe I stumbled into some other trig-related article and came back here. Or maybe this one had some A/B content going on?

The only thing I remember at this point is that I copied and pasted that sentence (I didn't type it.) Even search doesn't find the sentence anywhere but HN.
