At least not until last month, when I stumbled upon the "missing" piece to the puzzle so to speak. As things are now, the model is what appears to be legitimate map of the primes (but I haven't done any complex analysis yet) I've tested up to a point to be convinced to take things to the next level. The model works, to my knowledge of time complexity, at constant time or linear time, which only makes sense if you understand that I was looking for "simple" constants and equations to explain everything initially, meaning there are no expansions to calculate nor summations/products, at least that is they aren't necessary to solve anything in regard to get the next nth set of primes. The goal all along was simply to find an algebraic map of the primes, not to prove or disprove the hypothesis.
Who can I talk to about all of this without sounding like a dummy? I'm a programmer (but curious novice mathematician) at heart. Covid was a once and a lifetime opportunity to learn much more than I expected I would ever end up doing behind the desk programming. I intentionally didn't want to know what professional mathematicians knew about the zeta and gamma functions because no progress has been made doing that, at least not ground breaking that is. What I've seen the zeta/gamma functions do is nothing less than revelational for me on a personal and almost "spiritual" level. I'm not in it for money or fame, just that glory I've witnessed, it actually wasn't even my idea to do any of this exploration--but that's another story.
Edit: btw I'm serious, sometimes it's hard to tell if I am or not, so there's no need to ask.

Right now, you're one 'divide by zero' away from being a lunatic. But, for legit theory, there is a path in via somebody who gatekeeps. Why do they gatekeep? Because squaring the circle has been a thing for three thousand years.
