No. I'm not. My problem actually is: I wish I understood the theorems better. I'm not sure how significant they are, or what they imply beyond logic systems. I've read somethings about how people mistake the point of them, or uselessly drag them to an extreme level of profoundness, and then prioritize their influence on the development of their own work (I think that's what I read, but I'm not so clear about whatever blog thing I was reading).

But again, most importantly, I don't really understand the theorems that well. I've just read a lot of interpretations, summaries or simplifications.
