Believe what you like. Including that all mathematics communication and education is flawless and incapable of any ambiguity, apparently.
But for your own growth as a person, I recommend you chew on this: the people who write these “questions” to put on Facebook are exploiting the exact same mindset that made you decide that insulting my intelligence was the best way to have this conversation, and using it to get a massive amount of rage-baity engagement. They’re not teachers trying to educate. They’re scammers trying to build up a following so that they can execute a scam.
Actual math educators, on the other hand, are moving away from using the “PEMDAS” (or “BEDMAS”) acronyms because of the ambiguity inherent in them, and using “GEMS” (or “GEMA”) instead. Partially because, if even smart people who know PEMDAS can get confused, the acronym must not be all that useful.
Anyway. You’re trying to make me mad, and for a minute it worked. But I’m over it. Again–have a good one.
They ALL are
They’re definitely not
Says person who definitely can’t give a single example of any that aren’t 🙄
I don’t take homework from insufferably smug jerks on the Internet. Have a good one.
Nor Maths teachers apparently, which would explain a lot. Hilarious that you say goodbye when you can’t back up what you said with a single example

Same as all Mathematicians, textbooks and proofs.
Yep
you were the one who decided to refuse to look in Maths textbooks 🙄
No they aren’t.
There isn’t any ambiguity in them 🙄
Nope. No Maths textbooks are using that.
And if that is true, then GEMA would be completely useless 🙄
No I’m not.
Again, you still couldn’t provide a shred of evidence to support your argument
Ok.
