Hawking was being interviewed about \u003Cem>A Brief History of Time\u003C\u002Fem> and public science, and the interviewer raised the frequently cited 160 figure. Hawking did not confirm it, did not deny it, and dismissed the entire framing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The remark was widely quoted, usually as a witticism. It reads better as a considered position. Hawking spent his career surrounded by people at the extreme end of mathematical ability, in an environment where everyone was exceptional and the differences that mattered were about which problems you chose and how long you were willing to stay with them. In that context, ranking colleagues by a single number would be both useless and slightly absurd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\n    \u003Cdiv class=\"article-callout\">\n      \u003Cdiv class=\"article-callout__title\">\n        \u003Cspan class=\"article-callout__icon\">💡\u003C\u002Fspan>\n        Why he reacted that way\n      \u003C\u002Fdiv>\n      \u003Cdiv class=\"article-callout__body\">Hawking spent his career in a field where results are checked by other physicists, not by test scores.

He also worked closely with students and collaborators who served as his hands, which meant every idea had to be articulated clearly enough for another person to carry it.
