I disagree. You can’t fix stupid. Hogsters will support their convinced beliefs with pasted on numbers grabbed from sources they don’t even understand.
Oh I see you mean Subjective Mathematics?

Most everyone knows that 1/4 is less than 1/2 and should be able to relate it to f/4 yielding less light than f/2.
Most people don’t need to know the details (Aperture, focal length, diameter, area, etc).

Having a larger number give you a smaller opening can be confusing. Using "larger" and "smaller" to refer to the size of the opening seems to be the safest way to refer to aperture sizes. Of course, you can also use the numbers if you want to be specific.

How can 1/2 be more than 1/4 when everyone since preschool knows 4 is bigger than 2?

I know a number of people who don't know if 9/16 is larger or smaller than 5/8.

Nope. No solution there.
I understand forgetting middle-school math. But, if you're troubled with how it is that larger f-stop numbers indicate smaller apertures, you won't really ever understand WHY and will just have to accept the fact.
