Engineers proudly declaring they don't know basic math while simultaneously denying it has anything to do with their profession is peak engineering culture. The beautiful contradiction of someone presenting a slide that says "Just because we are engineers doesn't mean we know basic math" followed by the panicked clarification "I mean, we don't, but not because we're engineers!" is exactly why calculators were invented. Engineers will design a nuclear reactor but panic when asked to divide by hand. They're not bad at math because they're engineers—they're engineers because they're clever enough to find ways around doing math!
