  I agree with you. 
  Most people don’t realize how math is taught to teach syllogism in critical thinking. Their brains need this formulaic teaching to keep those neural pathways during a critical period of their life. 
  I feel like people who can’t appreciate having a base knowledge or set of critical thinking skills won’t be able to see the benefit of anything. They want immediate gratification rather than a long term skill. 
  I will say it’s partially to how math is taught. We should teach it like a writing system/language in tune with the language of the primary schooling language. This does actually matter and we in America seem to be combatting that.
context: There’s different types of math, and some just aren’t interested in shapes and angles >
