"Trivial proof" section - reasons for the removal

My edit removed a section called "Trivial Proof", which was introduced with this edit. It can be reasoned with confidence that despite the best effort of the section's author, the section was very verbose and talkative, occasionally confusing (e.g., "vertical" direction on the "landscape"), did not add much clarity to the subject, and seemed to be original research. Besides, the title "Trivial Proof" was misleading. While it might be a good idea to provide an illustration to the inequality in terms of a landscape and pebbles, the removed section (as it was) made the article worse.

Shouldn't there be some statement about the sets Z and W?

There is no mention whatsoever about the sets Z and W. Does the theorem hold for unbounded sets? Does the theorem hold if Z and W are not subsets of Rⁿ? Sfratini33 (talk) 20:42, 9 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
