I didn't edit my comment, at least not from what I remember. May have been a typo fix in the first few seconds though, which I do a bit too often.

Not sure if my comment was clear, but I was referring to "hard problems with trick solutions were called Jewish Problems", which sounds like it's referring to the Final Solution.

Reminds me of a funny anecdote, I was staying with a friend of mine in Berlin and asked her what the second most common religion was in Germany. She casually said "used to be Jewish, but not sure now..." She was of course referring to the influx of refugees from Africa, but for a very brief moment it looked like her life flashed in front of her eyes.
