i like your overall sense of things, but this seems a big mistake. i think higher-math-type thought (not necessarily actual higher math) is very important, difficult, and i assume the earlier the better. bottleneck might be subtle mentoring issues / posing through-provocations
why do you believe that learning math would help to theorize in some general sense better than playing Civilization or Europa Universalis?

maybe "learning" math is not the right name for what i have in mind; being taught math would probably be worse than Civ/AOE/etc played "seriously for fun" (like, serious AOE people actually do math and experiments and theory to get good build orders, tactics, etc).

"teaching" real math probably looks somewhat like being a good meditation teacher, at least relative to how math is usually taught; you're more trying to get the student to be "turing complete" ASAP, rather than imparting some specific info / understanding, though info also good
