WOW that's the reason? I didn't catch that, that's both hilarious and disheartening. Dijkstra is rolling in his grave... I suppose we'll have to move from "nodes and edges" to, idk, "dots and lines", kinda like TikTok has created "unalive"? |

Or the Tits group[2] (I swear, I'm not a member!).
Very tempted to include Tits Alternative[3] as one of my interests on LinkedIn, but I'm afraid the result will be too predictable.
Side note: The two groups that don't satisfy the Tits Alternative are very dear to my heart. Writing software to do computation in Thompson's Group and its generalizations[4] was my introduction to geometric group theory. And I ended up with Grigorchuk as my graduate advisor after learning about the Grigorchuk group.
