Basically what we’ve found is that students need a better understanding of statistics, visualizations, etc.
But just because these are mathematical concepts why do they have to replace math in the curriculum? Logically, shouldn’t they replace the least valuable parts of the curriculum, irrespective of whether that’s math or not?
So the question really shouldn’t be statistics vs calculus (or advanced algebra) but rather statistics vs whatever is considered the weakest part of the curriculum across the board, not just limited to the field statistics belongs to.
