6+some more which equals some more+6 cause addition is commutative? This is reminiscent of 'New Math' so that's my best guess, sorry. Maybe they're just trying to introduce the concept of addition without rules i.e 27+9 = 36 without carrying or Feynman's hypothetical Mayan priests counting beans in a pot.
