At some point though, the speed of reading/writing is limiting what you can understand. Think of "not fitting the needed formulas/theorems in cache".

I did study math at university for a while. Dropped out eventually. In the beginning I was super annoyed by the brevity and hated it. But after like 3 months it suddenly became natural. I also appreciate the clarity of how mathematicians introduce new ways to write things. That is sometimes even more verbose than some random API docs for a new function…
