I disagree that Calculus is not hard. Integration and differentiation on certain elementary functions, sure. Once you go beyond you can't mechanistically manipulate symbols anymore. The foundation of limits, too, properly treated requires quite a bit of foundational and proof machinery as well. So now you need to talk about how first-order logic is related to mathematics.

You can build intuition without giving a full on analysis class. Also, algebra can be tedious (just look at any spinor calculation in quantum field theory). That's in fact one of the problems, focus on tedious integrals rather than the substance which you can glean as a teenager.
