I show this paper to college freshmen because
• it’s pictorial
• it’s about an object you mightn’t have considered mathematical
• no calculus, crypto, ML, or pretentious notation
• it’s short
• it’s a classification proof: “How can it be that you know something about _all possible_ X, even the xϵX you haven’t seen yet?’
