    But did you even read my full comment. Aside from the general trend in names, it brings up the bigger subject of erasure of non-western thinkers from mathematics.

    If nobody cared there wouldn’t be an entire adacemic subfield pertaining to this.

    Also what does a random historical essay about the end of the golden age of science in the arabic world pertain to erasure of non-western contributions in mathematics?
