How much of a retard am I for partially going into science because I want things named after me?

it's a motivation, probably a common one, maybe not the best one

beyond that, who cares?

You aren't retarded for wanting that.
it's an enormous feat.

I would cringe so hard every time I had to mention something named after me

It's one type of motivation among many. Whatever works to get you off your ass to apply yourself.

Instead of saying "user's theorem" you could just say, "the theorem I proved in ___ shows..."

Stigler's law of eponymy states that no scientific discovery is named after its original discoverer. Stigler named the sociologist Robert K. Merton as the discoverer of "Stigler's law" to show that it follows its own decree. So you shouldn't worry about it as long as you are not some masonic cunt.

>tfw generic common last name

"Theorem 2.5.13 of [Anon16] shows that.."

It's fortunate that I'm too lazy and unmotivated to ever make a discovery of note. My name is so long and awkward to pronounce (Polish, so a true consonant massacre) that generations would curse me for it.
