As a research mathematician, I often get annoyed by poor choice of notation, but I (personally) don't ever have plans with ambiguity or lack of precision. Indeed, my favorite authors often use notation that is slightly ambiguous, but is clear in context. My issues are with math papers that introduce unilluminating notation, too much notation (henceforth write L for log(x)), or (above all) do not go to enough effort to keep their arguments simple. I speak only for myself, and some of my colleagues would surely disagree with me, but basing mathematical notation off a programming language takes a step in the opposite direction from what I can process most fluently.
