Numbers aren't language, or even sequences of tokens, or vectors.

There is an inherent numeric-ness and logic to math that I don't think we can represent well using LLMs and transformers.

3 isn't about the word "three" - it is a quantity or a measurement. And 3x4 is a specific numerical operation that is not really contained in that sequence of symbols.
