This world is designed to favor the elderly. Gaining experience through trial and error first means that you have a competitive advantage over latecomers. It also occupies an advantageous position in social organization. This is the advantage that arises from being the first to start. However, the statement that 1 plus 1 equals 2 can be understood without any experience; it serves as an analytic proposition that can be known by reason compared to the aforementioned experiential proposition. In other words, in the realm of analytic propositions, the advantage of being older does not hold much weight. The world needs both experiential propositions and analytic propositions, but experience is not always essential. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

However, when there is more white hair, it is called “white hair.” Quantity is an essential criterion for distinguishing meaning. When analyzing certain phenomena, quantity significantly influences definitions and meaning; however, it can also overlook other important aspects. Therefore, the meaning of “quantity” should always be considered carefully. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
