> Math can get very, very hard to read. That's exactly my point: Math gets hard to read, but it's because of the math, not because of the notation. When new notation simplifies things, and is quickly adopted by practitioners - e.g. Einstein's tensor notation. I am not aware of a single case in history where a more verbose notation was preferred to a terse notation in mathematics - except perhaps in the case of Leibniz' notation for calculus, which is slightly more verbose than Newton's but it address a significantly larger set of concepts, and does so with regularity and orthogonality.
