Instead of memorizing multiplication tables, you instead have to memorize derivative formulas, or the formulas for the Fourier and Laplace transforms, or the difference between a bijection and an injection, or all the conditions on an elliptic curve that make it suitable for cryptography. I could go on and on and on.
The stupid notations that mathematicians use doesn't help either. All math should be done using S expressions (and I'm pretty sure Minsky would have agreed!)
