gollark: I know, I have to press something like four buttons on my calculator every time I need to switch.
gollark: Elimination of air resistance from calculations, no (well, less) need for expensive vacuum pumps in much scientific research, much easier and cheaper astronomy, no extreme weather, completely fixing global warming, no children asking why the sky is blue, no fires, much less corrosion of metal stuff...
