But the way how I talk about linearity is that in the same way as no signatures are linear, right? It doesn't matter if you if you do the addition, right? So this base v becomes a problem because it's this offset,. basically the if you look at a y axis and an x axis, you're looking at a diagonal line that starts at zero. That's what you can handle. If the diagonal line starts at that one or two something, then you can no longer handle it. And well,
