minus-square𝕽𝖚𝖆𝖎𝖉𝖍𝖗𝖎𝖌𝖍@midwest.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·3 days agoDunno, but good theory. The other theory someone suggested that makes sense is that it’s spoken shorthand, like “I like 3-5 beer” was written “3/5”. Mist people would probably pronounce “3.5” as three-point-five, so writing it 3/5 does make sense.
