Original Note:
This is a poor understanding of the old Newton/Leibniz development of calculus. Trying to separate infitessimal quotients from derivatives is poorly posed without limits being defined. Marx was wrong, as the original argues. https://www.quora.com/Is-it-correct-to-think-of-dy-dx-as-a-quotient-of-infinitesimals-as-Leibniz-did-Why-Because-considering-the-definition-of-derivative-as-the-limit-of-the-quotient-of-differences-it-would-seem-that-a-division-is-made
