The natural medium for math is on whiteboards and paper. A computer algebra system like Mathematica is useful, but it augments what is traditionally a paper-and-pencil activity. It makes sense that the standard notation for math is something that is amenable to physical tools.
And it makes sense that the computer tools to assist mathematicians should more closely match this standard notation.
And of course this is not true.
I know mathematicians who work almost exclusively on a computer, and others who have an old dusty computer from 20 years ago in the corner of their office that they barely touch. Most are somewhere in between.
Since it in principle never makes mistakes (in practice there are of course bugs, but they are usually different in nature than human errors) it changes what is possible and most convenient. You no longer have to optimise for simplicity as heavily for example. On the other hand computers basically can’t deal with ambiguity, so the rules and statements have to be stated very simply and clearly.
EDIT: One example that comes to mind are indexes in functions. Usually they are just additional arguments that are different somehow from the “main” arguments, for example often being non-negative integers. For humans it makes it easier to think and operate about indices separately from the rest of arguments. But for the computer it’s all the same, as all arguments are treated just as argument, (of course it depends on the implementation etc) and there is no need to treat them separately, since every argument is “special”.
I believe computers can change the landscape of what’s best notation. This is an interesting, interdisciplinary topic to explore.
Let's be precise here: the parent hasn't used "must" here, just stated their observation. It's possible that many if not most mathematicians work this way, but it's not definitely the only one, and it doesn't mean it can't be changed. Actually, there is a lot of work being done on theorem provers, for example.
And yes, I enjoy writing in math notation because it's an immediately understandable notation compared to 500 character programming statement.
