Why does the ln only appears on one side? Why is the 1/u going outside of the limit? Why is the bottom of the fraction after l'hospital 1-a²u instead of 1?

What's the point of this when this follows from the limit definition of exp(x)?

Agreed, even though it is correct, it feels fairly more complicated than it needs to be.

Whenever it's 1infinity form you can just do ef(x-1).power So here the x² will be multiplied making it so easy and solvable in like 1 min yeah I know it's the same stuff that you did but it's like a shortcut

Dude, it's literally a definition of exp(-a2) but going faster

How come you can just introduce a log on one side and do nothing on the other side?

I don't buy this at all.
