I think you say that because you don’t understand the actual point structure.
So first point is actually 15. But some people like to just say 5 instead. Now if you both have a point, then you would say 15 all or 5 all. After that, the next point is 30. If you’re tied it’s 30 all. Now the next point is, you got it, 40. If you’re tied, you would obviously say, duece. Now if you score a point, after having 3 points, which is called 40, and you would have more than 2 points than your opponent, then you have won the game, which is the name of a set of points and does not mean you won the whole game. But if you would have 1 more point than your opponent after scoring a point after your 3rd point, then instead of getting a game, you get advantage. You need to score 1 more point to win the game, which is just a set of points and not the whole game. If you have advantage, and your opponent scores a point then you lose your advantage, and it’s right back to duece, which is what you say when both players have 40, which is actually 3 points.

Let me tell you about cricket next…

Easy right?
You say the first point is 15, but you must remember that both players start on an egg, called love.
Lol FML. I totally forgot about love.
Out of context that would be a truly bleak statement.
I don’t love this.
