Hey, it's not my fault, the hypothetical explicitly states that it's a universe with different rules. How could we, using our rules, say that 2+2=5 cant be true in a universe that -doesn;t- use our rules?
In that universe...2+2, as we define both two and plus, could equal 5, as we define five. It sounds ridiculous to us, sure, but this universe doesn't operate on our rules, it's not a logical universe.
The treatment is uninteresting because the question is uninteresting, lol. If things were different, things would be different.
