Therefore y=6*x is "logically equivalent" to y=3*w, because x can be
rescaled by a suitable factor. It also logically follows that you are
willfully blind.
Think about what you are saying. For which combinations of [x,y] does
one equation equal the other? Only [0,0]! For [6,1] the first equation
is true but the second not. Therefore they are *not* logically
equivalent.
I have said in advance that w=2x.
Read the thread. C'mon guy, I know you are not *this* stupid! You've
written better thought-out stuff before. - Simply redefining the issue
won't make it go away.
