I'm trying to multiply a matrix and a vector (imported from a csv) in Wolframscript to speed up a process normally done with Mathematica notebooks. This is my first time using Wolframscript, however, and it seems that it won't simplify my answers. For example, I have tried the simplest of examples:

value1 = Import[file1.csv, "Table"];
value2 = Import[file2.csv, "Table"];

value1 = value1[[1]][[1]]
value2 = value2[[1]][[1]]

Print[FullSimplify[Evaluate[value1 * value2]]]

This gives Sqrt[6] in the regular notebook, but Sqrt[2]*Sqrt[3] as output in the command line using Wolframscript.

I've tried FullSimplify, Simplify, Evaluate, etc, yet nothing seems to simplify the answer in wolframscript.

The matrices and vectors I'm trying to multiply eventually are much more complicated, so I'm trying to find a solution for this simple case. I'm wondering if it is something to do with the Sqrt function?

Thanks in advance!
