I thought it was, in Russell's.

I also thought to goof on Fermat's "Last" Theorem, but can't manage the HTML. Oh, well....

I'm no expert on the Principia, never cracked it for that matter, except maybe to see what I looked like. But it's hard for me to see how they could have defined 2, except essentially as 1 + 1.

As for Fermat's last theorem, God, of course, could have checked that out case by case. You don't have to check it for all powers, only for 4 and the primes.
