Discussion
Why is checking a proof easier than finding one?
Answer: B
Verification examines each step in turn and confirms it instantiates an inference rule, which is linear in the proof's length, while finding the proof required searching an enormous space. Proof length varies, domain knowledge is not needed by either, and assuming correctness would defeat the purpose. An asymmetry between constructing and verifying is what allows a complex tool to be trusted through a simple one.
