Here is a good anecdote. And for once, ta tam! it is calculator related.
One of the app in Prime is the triangle solver. I created that thing because I needed a break from 1 user who just relentlessly asked for it for a period of over 10 years!

Now, go to the triangle solver and enter 1, 2 and 3 for a, b and c, press Solve... you get 0°, 0°, 180° for the angles

Do you know how many letters of complaints I got because of that? Because people complained that this was incorrect that this was not a triangle? literally order of magnitude more than before I created the triangle solver.

Some how ... and I almost hate to be the one to say it ... but ... and get ready for this ... couldn't you just tell them it is:

"just a matter of degree?"


oooh, that was bad, and you just knew someone was gonna say it! (Why me, Lord?)
