Since I started learning maths from the ground up, I realized that most of what I thought was complicated back then was just a language barrier.
Algebra is just a language we use for precision and conciseness. It's a great encoding protocol to compress logic and share it. But that's a very unnatural way to unpack logic.
People forget that algebra is based on geometry which is the essence of maths. Unknowns represent shapes and operations represent geometric transformations (adding, cutting, stretching, shrinking, etc).
Geometry is the most natural way to decode maths as it relates directly to our natural pattern recognition abilities. Why not use our brain for what it's best at?
