There is no license required for using math. Yea, if you dont want, then you will not use math. But, if you dont have some mental block, then you may find ways

  > If you dont have some mental block The "mental block" you're referring to here is a combination of individual aptitude, capacity, access to educational resources & time-/effort-budgeting over a lifetime. This isn't some free casual object people are refusing to collect on their travels, it requires investment.

    It does indeed require investment of mental effort. But that's it. I'd argue maths is one of the cheapest monetarily skills it is possible to pick up - there have been several great contributions from people with little or no formal schooling. It's not like it's available only to a select few, I think pretty much everyone that gets deep enough in to be able to apply it continues to do so throughout their life. It can be used to fill in for all sorts of problems. I've been a tutor and ive long been a strong advocate for yes you can do it. I've met so many diverse people with excellent spacial reasoning that for whatever reason decided they weren't smart enough or couldn't understand it, yet when given a zealous advocate to encourage them picked it up just as quickly as any stereotypical maths genius
