After an amusing exchange of views with the Admonistrator (Hi, Bo!), during which I tried to object about the correctess of one of the words used in identifying me (born in 1935!), Bo decided to change both of them, 'motu proprio' and ... without worning.

Yes, I was surprised like you. Concerning 'Tropical Math', as such, please see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropical_geometry. Concerning its possible connections with 'zeration', please see: http://forum.wolframscience.com/showthread.php?s=182c720e8d47fac8c8fe7afd5959ba5c&threadid=1984.
