Yeah, his learning process is...chaotic. There's so much to learn! And absolutely no accepted/standard pathway for Linhardt to learn all of it, so he's just going at it randomly. He's mostly slowed down by the fact that he does want to confirm each step: It's not enough to know, he has to understand WHY things work. Which in a lot of cases involves the mathematical underpinnings.
The only cult he can accept is one that demands nothing of him.
The classification system discussion could be fun! Category theory, away! Lin possesses an odd combination of really caring for people and finding them interesting and also not understanding them at all. Like how a lot of people feel about cats: So good, so interesting how different they all are, but they do so many things that don't make sense. He includes himself in this and will absolutely discuss things about him that are illogical. Like why does how attractive someone is make him care if they like him? Objectively it doesn't matter! And why does he like peaches and not grapes? (This is why his actual main scientific interest is magical genetics, but he doesn't know what genes are so... he's from the olden times so a lot of the sciences still blur together. Gotta invent microscopes before you can figure out genes, so gotta figure out optics, so gotta figure out the math...)
Yes, but consider: She could do the proof and he could read it later! And in the meantime he can sleep! Doesn't that sound better? He could just sleep while she works!
But also, you need to relax, 37. Like, please. Take a nap in the sun! It's great! (In this, he is very 'human'.)
