It could be worse.  Satoshi, for example, would say something like:

    There are now 63000 files and directories in the repository.
    That's 2**3 * 3**2 * 5**3 * 7.  If we concatenate the exponents,
    we get 3231, which is 3**2 * 359.  Repeating, we get 21, which
    is 3 * 7.  One more repetition and we get 11, which is itself a
    prime, as is 37.  Isn't that amazing?
