Question for music theory experts who are also coders: does it feel like understanding a programming language, or something else? Admittedly I've never really made any serious independent effort to learn it, or to retain whatever I tried to learn, but it is very difficult for me to even grasp a mental model of how understanding it is supposed to work, or feel, in my head.

I can read a piece of code and know how the bits affect one another. When I read basically anything on music theory it feels like a string of non-sequiturs basically. Maybe there's just some skill floor where that all starts to feel organized?
