Now we are even talking of the length of a function. Can it get more absurd?!
No. It is perfectly reasonable. Go and "ask the mathematics department" or whatever criteria it will take for (the collective) you to understand that.
Just make a field experiment. Go to the mathematics department and ask people what is the length of (1, 1), the length of (1, 1, 1). An then count the number of people that respond "1" to both of these questions. And weight it against the people that say something else.
We already agree on the result. Thanks again for pointing out, that I am pointing to the mistake that is repeatedly made. I will just keep pointing to it. Just keep that mistake out of my code, thanks.
