I also think that is the cause of almost all the downvotes, the numbers match well. The ideas presented are about interesting and relevant topics so potentially worthwhile even if the specific proof does not hold up. If not for the appearance of certainty (esp. "mathematical proof") where you should have been offering it up as something you'd like thoughts on (esp. if you had specific questions, pointed out parts you were less sure about, etc) I would likely have upvoted, as is I only didn't downvote because it seems you've lost more than enough karma for this already and it would feel like kicking a dead horse. I'm sure by now anyone who sees this will realize clickbait titles are not a great way to get points on lesswrong.
