You don't. I was simply expressing bewilderment at seemingly
deliberately ineffective communication.
Anyway, it's pretty clear that this won't be in D, though I encourage
anyone who is interested to browse other random math-related Wikipedia
articles and see that the notation is indeed commonly used and
essentially never with any further explanations or references.
E.g., see here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azuma%27s_inequality#Proof_2
I.e., it is standard. I think calling this into question is not of
particular value.

I hope not. Get well soon.
