Pocket calculators have been available for 50+ years. Would you hire an engineer who couldn't instantly multiply 8 times 7? What about one who couldn't tell you the difference between linear growth and exponential growth? These are examples of skills that need to be learned, even if they're available externally, so that technical and creative work can build on them.
