Hello.
As you may be aware, the Higher-Dimensional Manipulation page used to explain the basis for part of our system to visitors, which I think was inappropriate, as it is technically a powers & abilities page.
As such, I asked DontTalkDT if he was willing to improve and expand on the explanation to include the mathematical foundation in a separate Dimensional Tiering page, and he was kind enough to help out.
I have updated the front page and Tiering System links to this new page instead, and removed the now unnecessary explanation sectio from the higher-dimensional manipulation page.
I hope that this will reduce some of the scorn that we tend to receive for our system.
However, an "infinity in projective geometry" explanation section was not included, as it is not within DontTalkDT's area of expertise, so I wonder if somebody in the staff is knowledgeable enough to write such a section, or if we should simply remove the mention from the tiering system page.
The principle was that higher-dimensional objects turn infinitely large when projected on lower dimensions. Although I think that I learned about this by reading a very old version of a Wikipedia page, so it may have been a mistake on my part, but I would nevertheless greatly appreciate if somebody knowledgeable in the staff could investigate further.
