sounds like an excellent way to make mathematical proofs more accessible to the masses!

  Potentially! But it would likely be years of effort and research to get something usable, which may end up being a dead end. It's simultaneously a tantalizing and torturous proposition.

    whether the project is a success or not it seems you would get a lot out of the process. Sometimes you have an idea of what you would like to do and only by going down the path do you realize what you should be doing.

    Even if the project isn't successful, it's a required part of innovating. it's a real contribution.

      This is where grad school shines for this sort of stuff. You have mentorship that can steer you along toward doing something relevant and making a worthy contribution that wouldn't be a wasted exercise on your part. If you come in off the cuff thinking "Proofs need fixed," you are probably going to end up reinventing the wheel at best since you lack any context to what has already been done in the field.
