It's easy. When you don't know a lot of math beyond college, but you see a post like this one, voting it up lets you pretend that you're in-the-know. "Oh yeah, I'm competent enough to upvote this. I know math." You may even end up fooling yourself into believing it. Same thing happens with physics, chemistry, linguistics... posts.
