> Odrzywolek's result is immediately obvious
This may or may not be true; but the burden of proof should not lay with the reader.
Please provide (in absence of which every reader can draw their own conclusions) a reference which simultaneously:
1) predates Odrzywolek's result
2) and demonstrates the other unary and binary operations typically tacitly assumed can be expressed in terms of a single binary operation and a constant.
(in other news: I can spontaneously levitate, I just don't feel like demonstrating it to you right now...)
Upvoted back to not-greyed-out. You must have struck a nerve.
