You don't seem to be interested in low cognitive load at all, otherwise:

you would have attempted to motivated your choice of reference point in terms of cognitive load. Even if induction mathematics was the way the human mind worked (which it isn't) it's very different from CPUs and there is a cognitive load (and semantical distance) in going from mathematics to CPUs.

Would you take seriously a physicist who denies gravity? I wouldn't take seriously a computer scientist who denies structural induction.
