A calculator that deliberately miscalculates mathematical values entered by a nationality or regional group could lead to absolute misery and death.

It could make their buildings and bridges unsafe.

This is why we shouldn’t have calculators.

Let’s just go back to the Stone Age and ban stones too.

Let’s just fuckin ban existence all together 😂

That’s a poor analogy.

We don’t have calculators like that, and if we did, it would make buildings and bridges unsafe.

That’s exactly the point. Trusting powerful tools with bias you can’t disentangle is asking for a misalignment of incentives and inequity on who knows what scale.
