You're putting words in my mouth.
I majored in mathematical modeling (econometrics) and spent my career on Wall St. I am one of those who believe just about everything can be expressed mathematically.
What I was objecting to was the manner in which you were scolding a non-math poster like a cranky professor who insults students in class.
I probably shouldn't have said a word and apologize for butting in.
Well, I am a cranky professor, and if you did your graduate work in modelling, then you are forgiven for having missed the fact that most of what mathematicians do is prove things. (OTOH, I am worried that high school math no longer seems to contain a sufficient dose of proofs in the geometry course, so that a high school math teacher makes the claim that a little exercise in proof is “not math”.)
