This already exists, right now...? I've seen tons of USB hubs with an hdmi output and several USB ports that can be used concurrently. Hell I'm using one right now. Are you asking about something else?

The mere mention of the word "testicle" makes you think that your coworkers want to have sex with you? Wow.

Are you even trying to understand my point? Yes, in that direction, explicitly constructing an element of the bidual of V from an element of V is easy. To explicitly find an element of V from the element of the bidual, you need to choose a

GP is giving you an element of V**. You want to turn it into a vector. To do that, please make the inverse isomorphism explicit without using a basis. I'll wait...

That's incorrect if V is infinite-dimensional. A (0,1)-tensor is just supposed to be an element of V but with your definition you get an element of the bidual of V. Which is not isomorphic to V when dim V is infinite. And even when dim
