Show HN: Goldbach Conjecture up to 4*10^18+7*10^13
The "to this day" is in my opinion unnecessary - you could phrase it as "no one has proved it mathematically".
Alternatively, "it has yet to be proved mathematically".

Yes absolutely. I did not intend my suggestion to be interpreted as any kind of criticism.
