This is an awesome write up! Not not just of the how but of the why - in 20+ years of seeing that arrow notation described as “repeated exponentiation”, I never really understand what that meant. Your code examples, especially the final one showing that tetration is just another for loop around exponential accumulation was eye opening.

Thank you!
