Sir, please prove two plus two equals four...
But this is a definition of "four", and definitions are not subject to proof, being agreements about the assigned meaning of words. And to get four, count thou two and two together; and the number of thy counting shall be four... Three thou shalt not count, unless it be on your way to count four; nor five, unless thou countest in error...

You're correct, that was a bad example on my part. I bow to your superior wisdom.
