Embellish, mock, destroy, deride. BTW, the very last sentence is lifted, unaltered, from the nolabels.org website.

NYT Headline: Not all odd number greater than one may be prime. Subhead: Women, minorities disproportionately impacted, experts say.

Women’s Studies Prof: Primeness and Oddness are social constructs and have no objective reality. They are a patriarchal construct designed to oppress women.
Gender Studies Prof: Primeness and Oddness are social constructs and have no objective reality. They are a breeder construct designed to oppress GLBT people.
African-American Studies Prof: Primeness and Oddness are social constructs and have no objective reality. They are a racist construct designed to oppress African-Americans.

One, by definition, is not prime. I have suspicions about 9 and 15, and I’ll keep my eye on 23. Just in case.

Nine is not a prime number. We'll have to recheck your calculations. For now we are carrying it as an experimental error. (See "physicists" above.)

If we let “1” in the club, then the prime number theorem gets messy. It’s the uniqueness part.

Nice try. Needs a bit more development work.

Wait....what? I forgot the question. Guess my profession. Politician? (I work with a lot of "applied" mathematicians. Most of them don't remember Rolle's Theorem, but they transpose a mean Jacobian.)

That’s not embellishment. I suppose it’s intended as mockery, destruction or derision, then?
