Math is hard. Language is clearly one of humans inherent evolutionary talents. Children soak up languages at an unbelievable rate. Heck, most adults when faced with full immersion in another language can get pretty far. We are built to do language as much as we are built to walk on 2 legs.
Math, math seems more like a side effect of our big old brains. Math can be learned, but it fades quickly. We are able to do it, but we aren't really built to do it.
Anyway, i guess i'm arguing language is hard to screw up.
