It's not about the way it's taught, it's about the way it is. Mathematics is designed with the purpose of being the simplest way for humans to understand particular abstract concepts, some of which are necessary to understand natural phenomena. Most research is, in some sense or another, inventing tools or notation that make things easier to understand or calculate. Once they are easy enough to understand that all mathematicians can understand them, that's called a proof and becomes the language you use to understand science. So the very language is designed to be user-friendly for humans; there's an entire discipline and tradition spanning thousands of years of human history dedicated to it.
