I really appreciate some of the comments in the blog post talking about how most people don’t need algebra or anything beyond basic maths for anything in their lives. How those people have done just fine without understanding anything beyond addition and subtraction. It’s finally explained something I never really understood. How do so many people fall for pyramid schemes. How are there so many Americans that don’t understand the difference between their net worth and their credit limit. If you haven’t built a basic intuition for abstraction, which one pretty much learns only through algebra in K-12, all these things will be extremely difficult for you.
