Sure, if you define [math]a^{b}=a×b[/math]

If the party says 2+2=5, then it is 5.

OP here, I define it as half
Half a power of 2 could hypothetically be 1. Half a power of 10 could be 5, half a power of 5 could be 2.5
Different from a square root, because 1*1=1
2 * 0.5 = 1
This might be a "better" way to write the equation/idea

But 2 * 0.5 = 1
So why?

Let us evaluate this
1^2 = 2
1 * 1 = 2
An action times an action equals a reaction
This equation is in fact correct

I see what you're saying, because a square root is essentially the opposite of an exponent and not to treat it as multiplication.
So, since the square root of 2 is more like 2.41~
What about this as a way to "edge closer" to 1? It still wouldn't be 1, because nothing can square from 1
I was just thinking the "half power" would be fun to play with
I find it so weirdly fascinating that 1 is so untouchable by multiplication and square roots
Such a fascinating and anomalous little number it is

Haha thanks Tyson

I see what you're saying, because it's a square root it just doesn't work. You could hypothetically inch closer to 1 with smaller and smaller powers without ever reaching it.
What if it was in binary?
A genuinely curious question

nothing would change for the base has no effect
