You are giving plenty of ways in which calculus can be useful. But the GP wasn't arguing against claims that calculus is useful. The GP was arguing against a claim that calculus was useless, but you should study it anyway as "weightlifting for your brain". Your arguments about how calculus is useful would be better directed at the teacher the GP was arguing against.

And with respect to you, that would be the guy I was responding to, but that couldn’t possibly be correct because he said > rather than sitting on your butt learning a useless subject From context, inferred to be calculus, esp because > took me 3 semesters of Calculus to figure out that it was useless to me and 90+% of the people that take any of it Soooo… who is GP
