Don't overthink this, human. Just take my word for it. Math is beautiful, math is your friend, and math is trustworthy. Math DOES NOT lie. Math can be used to figure out bank balances, areas of shapes, rates of acceleration, even the angle of the sun in Asunción Paraguay at 11:42am (local time) on May 7th, 2022. The list of useful things math can do is endless. You, human, you're a different story. You are also beautiful, and you might be my friend, but you are not trustworthy. Humans have emotions. Humans have bias. Worst of all, humans LIE! What do we do when the math doesn't match up with the story you've told? You mention risk, math (whom I trust) tells me one thing, but you tell me something different. Why?
