However, the person writing only vaguely remembers this identity, and even forgets about basics like adding ''dx'' and the bounds of integration. This would indeed support the view that the person sucks at math. | However, the person writing only vaguely remembers this identity, and even forgets about basics like adding ''dx'' and the bounds of integration.

The correction/improvement attempted in the title text is just the average student's first guess when asked to reconsider an equation where the bounds of integration are missing. If the situation is actually about said integral, this is no proof of competence either. | The correction/improvement attempted in the title text is just the average student's first guess when asked to reconsider an equation where the bounds of integration are missing.
