> With math papers my experience is that you have to go 3/4 references deep before startit to understand where the notation comes from which wastes hours and hours. Most of the time you'd need even more hours to understand not the notation but the concept themselves. In this list there isn't that much weird notation compared to weird words. For example, 'The Krull dimension of a noetherian integral domain is finite'. Even without notation, I'd expect a non-math major to have to go read 8-10 wikipedia pages just to understand "Krull dimension".
