Yes. Tell me: are the following equivalent statements to a literally-minded 
stubborn mathematician like you:

4 + 1 = 5

1 + 4 = 5

2 + 3 = 5

3 + 2 = 5

because to a lateral-thinking, alternative-seeking musical thinker like moi 
they are not. You only have to perform (ie clap or tap out)  4 + 1 followed by 
1 + 4 to see ( ie hear -> ratiocinate) that they are not equivalent in the 
musical sense.

Give me  a shout if you cannot clap these sentences accurately.
