∞ reasons to love UF5 algset for blindsolving

[abunickabhi]

I want to get 126,720 reasons from you all about why 5-style is the next big thing in blindsolving and even sighted one-look solving.

1: Why not 5-style?
2: Name sounds cool
3: An alg a day keeps noobness away
4: Something to make 3-style feel like a piece of cake
5: To understand commutators better

6: Makes you love cubing more
7: It is easier than solving number theory problems, so it is not too hard
8: easier than top level chess opening preparations that the professionals do. Ballpark chess moves a top10 player remembers is few million moves, whereas UF5 is just 126k algs
9: May be a potential bridge between sighted solving and blindsolving methods
10: 5-style discord is super cool. Love the community and positive debates there.

11: Makes life easier once learnt
12: Becomes stronger and more efficient than English if letter quads are used.
13: Boosts our self-belief a lot
14: Builds insane amounts of patience
15: Make us ready to face unexpected (chance of getting a particular 5-cycle in an actual solve is quite low)

16: The set is beautiful, no other Cuber will loving enough to try this set seriously
17: Makes our brain more structured and tons of letter quads make phonetics and tons of more stuff easy
18: Resilience as your recall will be bad at first while doing UF5 in actual solves
19: You understand 3-style more deeply after trying 5-style
20: edges-only solves flow much more nicely.

21: Makes mind more generic and we get to realise different perspectives in cubing and in life.

22. Sets you up for 7 style (if that even exists)

 

[abunickabhi]

7-style exists, but it is not worth learning at all. Its too huge of a set and the returns (getting faster) are low.

 

[NigelTheCuber]

Yeah lol

Kind of like 5-style...

 

[abunickabhi]

23. 5-style is super doable if you learn 3-style
24. It helps you get more perspective in blindsolving.
25. 5-style increases your willpower in life (The algset takes a lot of your waking time, so in order to do well in studies or work you need to generate more willpower)

 

[abunickabhi]

26: 5-style makes complexity easier. We can wrap around our heads with harder implementations with better ease.
27: You start procrastinating less.

 

[abunickabhi]

28: Big mental effort starts feeling like small effort for you. For example, solving a complex chess position.

29: 5 is a cool number

Because you're not wasting your life with a method with a low outcome for the amount of work you're putting in? I would be very happy about that, now I can pursue things I didn't have time for before!

anyway, I'm making this post as a bookmark because I want to nominate it for Funniest Thread of the Year, you come up with some ridiculess things abunickabhi.

where is the rest of the 126,692 reasons?

 

[abunickabhi]

31: 5-style helps build the habit of consistency.
32: Discipline in time. We do not wing things at the last moment.
33: There is more planning.
34: More patience as results take a lot of time to come
35: Makes you a more calm cuber yo.

 

[abunickabhi]

36: Makes thinking of scalability easier in the mind, making you a potential good designer in your work.

37. You get to tell others that you learned 126000 algorithms on a 3x3

 

[abunickabhi]

38: You start caring for every kind of alg string as you have seen so many. In short, we become more alg conscious.
