Absolutely! I vaguely remember a discussion of geometric growth in at least one other course, but I was doing my best to give a thorough layperson’s explanation without getting into more analytic definitions for geometric series or the concept of continuity. I studied abstract/theoretical mathematics in my undergraduate degree, so I only really remember seeing geometric growth defined in statistics courses as far as applied mathematics goes as I avoided those courses where I could. I’m not in academia, and I did not pursue a further degree, so my apologies if I wasn’t entirely accurate. My mathematical theory is very rusty these days. lol
Oh, I only minored in math, I’m no expert either! Yeah, your explanation was really fine, I just thought the “sum of a geometric series” thing might ring a bell for some readers.
