Can we at least use statistics as the great sorter? The mindset gained from doing advanced statistics is more likely to be useful than the mindset gained from doing integration by hand.

Thanks to computers doing the drudge work, people can be introduced to stats by directly manipulating sets of numbers, rather than learning theorems about the properties of those sets. While I loved college stats, and especially the proofs, most people don't love math in that way. And if they memorize theorems without proofs, then I'd say they'd be better off without them.
