What your code can do is run this first and if it returns false then do a quick double check using a traditional isPrime function. Really speeds things up!
Nah, you’ve always got to check the corner cases. It’s a variation on Murphy’s Law - you don’t encounter corner cases when you’re developing a program but corner cases are 99 percent of an everyday user’s interaction.

I mean, it has a 99.999%+ success rate on a large enough sample and I can live with that.

Good idea, but it would be much faster if you do the double-check on true instead.
