The good calculator is the one using the processing power of the phone to handle the programming necessary to correctly interpret the order of operations and arrive at the correct answer, whereas the bad calculator - despite having no ads - is a cheap piece of trash unable to contain the necessary computational logic to arrive at the correct answer.

No need. The fact that you're incapable of comprehending it at this point indicates that any further attempts to explain it to you are equally likely to fall on deaf ears.

And you've long since given up trying to defend your incorrect position, so I can only assume that you're childishly continuing in an attempt to get the last word. That's fine, go right ahead and have the last word, I won't reply further since it's that important to you.
