“Haters” might be too strong a word, but of ugh-ers there are plenty, and humanities education does not seem to help—neither with the ugh-ing, nor with the social approval of said ugh-ing. And that is substantially harmful up to and including societal scales[1].

Not that the ugh-ers are entirely at fault! In society where nobody actually teaches anything deserving to be called “maths”[2], certainly nothing that would give any clue as to why people would actually want to do this thing[3], there’s little they could do to do better. Except maybe, as adults, wonder why there is this strange cluster of people who appreciate this apparently repulsive thing and investigate the reason for themselves.

(Not that this appreciation is universal even among experimental physicists, for example.)
