(part 1 of 2) The tweet’s article included “provided the foundation for the proof of [FLT]” where such previously claimed FLT [Wile’s] proof now no longer stands given Beal’s solving in 2018. Yes, it’s been a very disruptive 15 months for the math community since this happened.

(part 2 of 2) Often non-mathematicians are not aware that Beal was a generalization of FLT, where both were prefaced that no answers exist. Yet, Beal has been shown to have an infinite number of answers now.
