This is a really poor take, to try and put a firewall between mathematics and language, implying something that only has conceptual understanding root in language is incapable of reasoning in mathematical terms.

You're also correlating "mathematics" and "calculation". Who cares about calculation, as you say, we have calculators to do that.

Mathematics is all just logical reasoning and exploration using language, just a very specific, dense, concise, and low level language. But you can always take any mathematical formula and express it as "language" it will just take far more "symbols"

This might be the worse take on this entire comment section. And I'm not even an overly hyped vibe coder, just someone who understands mathematics
