No, I don't think this is a coincidence, but I'm not completely confident in saying that.

Thinking about it doesn't make me feel like I'm solving a maths problem. I start stacking ideas and concepts in a way which makes me feel like I'm overlaying them in a way which is incorrect.

It makes me feel like I'm solving a riddle, which hints to me that maybe it's actually a question of semantics and definitions rather than a maths problem.
