Hans,

This proof is nonsense and does not work either
symbolically or mathematically.

You say that 3l = r = -w.  If that is true then
3l = -w .

Then you say that l = r = -w.

That would mean that 3l = l, which is mathematically
impossible.

You had asked to be proved that you are wrong, and
now you have.

This proof also does not work symbolically.  Left and right are
directions not measurements.  Left and Right have no fixed distance
so you can't assume that one is equal to the other since mathematical
equations use values not ideologies.  But when you use the same
mathematical symbol (r, l, -w) its values must remain constant
within the same set of equations that you are solving for or you can't
solve for them.

On the real issue, I also agree with W5OV, but that is a different matter.
