Love it!

This was great! Spent a while trying to force a number out of the second word in each themer before coming back to the title, which provided the perfect clue to the correct path!
I think this is definitely a case of the title being huge. This might be the fourth iteration, after "Not Much Goes Into It," "This Factors Into It," and "Almost Prime Time." As much as I would've loved all the letters to spell out the meta answer in the right order, I figure the fact that I got the overlapping D's to work out nicely with a semi-relevant word is worth the one "switcheroo" on the 39, I think.

Am I too old to enroll in your remedial math course?
Despite the fact that I haven't taken a math class in 54 years, some knowledge must have stuck. I may not be as lucky next time.
KayW 🤓4:32 · 2022-08-02T14:33:24.827Z
Sine me up four that remedial math course, two.
Finally nudged over on this fantastic meta!
Laura M 🤓14:51 · 2022-08-02T20:40:49.181Z
Very cool, loved this!
DIS 🤓8:31 · 2022-08-03T15:48:02.623Z
This was especially good. Thanks!
Hector 🤓6:15 · 2022-08-03T22:18:28.492Z
Nice one. And phew, glad to get it out of the way even if it took nudges. I was factoring all kinds of numbers, but I hadn't figured out to connect the second themer words to numbers, and even when I finally did, I was 27 steps short.
spotter 🤓11:42 · 2022-08-04T18:16:21.739Z
27 Steps short indeed
whimsy 15:53 · 2022-08-04T12:46:07.094Z
Just happy with myself that I finally got it before the Friday nudge!
Very intricate! -- Thanks, Mikey!
woozy 🤓20:51 · 2022-08-04T17:31:49.941Z
Great puzzle. Hard. I don't think I can call it a solve for me as the final nudge was a whack with a two by four.
hoover 8s · 2022-08-04T17:59:14.875Z
Holy ****! That's some twisted ****! My brain just melted.

Terrific puzzle, Mikey! I’d rate it as WSJCC and MGWCC-worthy. My wife Lynne, a retired math teacher, suggested the method. I guess it helps to have her around!
