Theorem 1.* Nilpotent $\Leftrightarrow$ Tensors $\Leftrightarrow$ Data science

Proof: A Nilpotent—zero powered $0=x^n=x\cdot x\cdots x$ hides a product $(\cdot)$. And every zero $(0)$ needs a plus $(+)$. For times to talk to plus means to distribute

$$a\cdot (b+c)=a\cdot b+a\cdot c.$$

Distributive products factor through tensor products. That’s just posh speak for multiplication table What’s the difference between a Multiplication table and a data table? None really. $\Box$
