I'm not a mathematician, but I find it unsatisfying that the solution to such a simply stated theorem requires 100s of pages of mathematics.
Would have been cooler if the proof was extremely simple to write out, but required outside-the-box thought process that evaded thousands of humans for centuries.
I hope the same thing does not happen to physics. Discoveries that lead to simple equations like e=mc^2 are so cool!
