Maybe a bit of both. :-)

It is an analogy, but I feel the same than if I read a manual of maths
with "stay tuned" after a theorem as the proof. I feel in the same
time not enough formal for a manual and I am confused: is it already
proved and not written down yet or is it not proven yet?

Well, it is my feedback when I read it. :-)
And I feel cutting the hair in small pieces... French bias. ;-)


Thank you for the initiative. Cool!

All the best,
simon
