Most programmers don't do any math at all, so maybe this is just a niche thats not relevant to most of us, but to answer your question:

If I am thinking about any problem, its outside the scope of any programming language in the first place. My point is, modern functions already make array manipulations simple enough. Even if you're doing something like coding LLMs from scratch, numpy, list concatenations, list comprehension, lambdas, stream/map/reduce all exist and its not nearly an issue to implement them, as is the case for writing assembly vs python.

The prime example in python for example looks like this: all(x % i != 0 for i in range(2, x)) This pretty much does the same operations in the same order on the same fundamental data structure, so I just don't see what's fundmenetally different about the Klong way of thinking.

Anyway, I don't mean to argue, if it works for you great, I wish I had something new
