I wrote a (very long) blog post about those viral math problems and am looking for feedback, especially from people who are not convinced that the problem is ambiguous.

It's about a 30min read so thank you in advance if you really take the time to read it, but I think it's worth it if you joined such discussions in the past, but I'm probably biased because I wrote it :)

You are literally so far removed from this conversation I don't know what to do with you. Good luck.

That's rich considering what sparked this conversation was you refusing to answer a simple question.

Good luck to you too - with reading comprehension like your's, you might just need it.

I'll just say it again, you're the one saying this problem is completely unambiguous, with your only explanation as to why being that real people communicate as though that solves every edge case imaginable.

I'm just saying, if you really believe that to be the case, Good luck.
