I have ideas, but doubt that it could be discussed here.
Nah. I am not in the lounge with this topic specifically to restrain the penchant for going off topic into politics and such, stuff we agreed we would avoid when we freely joined this site.

The TOPIC here is the incompleteness and other limits of math as human technology and how those limits affect our cars, those of the past, those of the future. Your point about A.I. is well taken... it might be the great example because of how it will supplant human judgement with a mathematical logic. Our misplaced confidence in the completeness and authority of such logic is definitely an implication of the presentation in the OP.

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
