I believe that we should start mathematics education with programming, then go to generator systems for numbers and operators over them, then how to form lattices and operators on patterns in the lattice, and do approximately continuous math and physics only at the very end.
But don't you see that everyone who identifies with the hivemind of their local civilizatory tradition is intellectually doomed? Humans basically still live on trees, and different cultures just happen to have different trees.

That is the one thing that puzzles me in you: why can't you see that the Deep Ancient Tradition you are so deferent to is in fact unbearably stupid? Probably at least as much as the silly Western ones, since it lead to a lower standard of economic and military development?

The relevant tradition is not Western or Eastern but orthogonal to both. Every large culture has developed some tools and traditions for liberating the mind, but in none of them these tools are popular with the mainstream. Not even with the mainstream of the seekers.

Oh sure. Humans not only basically still live on trees, they are cutting down all trees in high-speed - leading to intellectual + physical doom. The question is, how a effective solution (education) can be implemented. I doubt ignoring the "hivemind" will work.

Why is that the question?
