I get a bit annoyed when people throw the word "Olympiad" into their video title, when the video is about a maths problem that is definitely NOT from a maths olympiad, or suitable for one. Usually, this is because the problem is either much easier or more routine than an olympiad question would ever be, and/or involves higher maths that olympiad questions don't require. This falls into both categories... it requires knowledge of complex numbers - which olympiad questions generally don't, and for those that have that knowledge it's not a difficult enough question to warrant 'olympiad' billing. Let me be clear - I have nothing against sharing a video about solving a reasonably tricky high school maths question. It's a worthwhile problem and worth exploring. It's just the false advertising that bothers me.
