@ElliotGlazer I doubt a full formalization (meaning unconditional on some heavy input in the literature) of some result will already cost more tokens than the full slopdrop considering the case of the FLT.
Of course this one has no lean formalization (well clearly it will cost way more tokens than the whole slopdrop trying to do formalization for this...) and the Hilbert 10th result also relies on this result according to the slop paper. I lost words for this situation lol. SLOP
Bet nobody checked the p=2 case Fontiane-Mazur paper before the slopdrop. Unarguably the worst modularity paper I had read with a Taylor-Wiles argument included, lack of details and bad content arrangement...
Even to check well-written paper of such results is not easy.
We've updated our GitHub math repo with 6 new Lean formalizations, 19 modifications, and 3 withdrawals. The repo now has ~42% top-line results formalized. We will continue to update the repo with new formalizations and with any errata we notice.

Oh hey, thanks for trying this! Just to give context, the challenge I issued is a special case of a Corollary of a more general theorem in a recent paper series by Sean Cotner and myself (and I would be remiss not to mention that Cotner did most of the math and writing). This manuscript literally uses our work, which handles the general case, to deduce the special case. So it certainly doesn't "count" for the challenge! (There's a reason I said 72 hours.) As Thomas Bloom said, "Think things through for yourself", folks!
@nihilsuncle I think most people do not check all these details and instead rely heavily on a vague intuition that things should work out or follow from universal properties. But as the theory grows increasingly elaborate, even a single careless miss can have disastrous consequences.
@nihilsuncle My point is, for example to build the theory of Grothendieck you still need technical stuff, like commutative algebra theorems and homological calculation, do you check all these details (also the commutivity of a lot of diagrams)?
