If we give up a bit of our snobbery on what is Computer Science, we may realize this is probably a sane starting point for a lot of students. The generation today hasn't grown up with computers like we did, most only had a cellphone which hides away even basic things like the filesystem and goes to the extreme extents to stop you from tinkering with it. You need a foundation for you to start making sense and to connect the dots for even the basic assumptions and theories that you may come up with. Another way to put it is you need to know numbers(or atleast a basic sense of what they are) before you do math.
