Is your documentation ableist, sexist or over-privileged?

even putting the SJW bullshit aside, this is retarded

`bipolar` may be insensitive, use `fluctuating`, `person with schizophrenia`, `person with bipolar disorder` instead'

bipolar disorder and schizophrenia aren't the same you dumb fucks

So instead of saying "our planet is magnetially bipolar" we should say "our planet is magnetically person with schizophrenia"?

"Magnetically bipolar" doesn't even make sense. It's expected that a magnet has two poles, so saying "magnetically bipolar" is like saying "four-legged cat".

Cats can be 0-N legged, ableist shitlord. Four-legged cats are just the expectation propagating four-normative legism in feline community.

Exactly my point. "Four-legged cat" is superfluous specifically because "cat" implies "four-legged", if the cat in question does not have four legs, then that should be specifically stated.

"cat" implies "four-legged"
Cat doesn't imply "four-legged", thats four-normative legism you ableist shitlord. All N-legged cats are equal.

What about fractional-legged cats?

You are assuming N implies integer. It does not. Thats integer prejudice in you. All N numbers are equal and deserve their part(N could be fractional,rational,imaginary or complex, or even have its own gender).
I'm not going to educate you. Google "Math is racist" and learn for yourself.

Even the article admits that it's not actually talking about magnets with four poles, but rather an arrangement of multiple magnets.

Guess what, a planet's magnetic field isn't created by a single magnet either. It's even more complex than an arrangement of 4 magnets, thus cannot reasonably be "expected" to be bipolar.

It's common knowledge that the Earth has precisely two magnetic poles.

Yes, but it is not to be "expected" and the mechanism causing the geomagnetical field is still not fully understood, thus the statement about the Earth being magnetically bipolar is far from trivial. It could have been quadrupolar or non-magnetical just as well.

It is "to be expected" because although the Earth's magnetic field consists of multiple "magnets", they are arranged in a way that they behave as a single one. Quadrupolarity requires a very specific arrangement of multiple magnets.

It is not "to be expected" because no one has seen these "magnets", no one knows their size and composition, and no one knows the way they're arranged.

Yes, but everyone is taught from a young age that Earth has two magnetic poles. By your logic, it's unreasonable to expect water to be wet if you don't know the subatomic structure of dihydrogen monoxide.

And so that phrase would be untrivial at least in that context (teaching people at young age). It is also untrivial in the context of teaching physics undergrads because that is a scientific fact. As for your analogy, it is flawed because the wetness of water is a fact apprehended directly by the senses, unlike the geomagnetic field.

Ha, get a load of this guy! Probably needs a compass to tell which way is north.

In fact, I can't even tell which way is north with a compass because I know that magnetic poles don't coincide with rotationary poles.
