Oh, it would be ok for him to state what he was proving in the end, if
that fit his humor. I believe the lecture in which Wiles showed FLT
true _concluded_ with showing that FLT was true.
The problem is not that JSH does not state the theorem he intends to
prove up front. The problem is that he does not state it at all.
