Every calculus student eventually has that existential crisis moment when they realize integration is literally just fancy addition with extra steps. You spend weeks learning all these elegant techniques—u-substitution, integration by parts, trig substitution—only to discover your computer's been doing it the caveman way all along: chop the area into a bajillion tiny rectangles and add them up. The mathematical equivalent of using a sledgehammer when you thought you needed a scalpel. Sure, the analytical solution is beautiful and exact, but the computer's sitting there like "why waste time derive lot formula when small rectangle do trick?" And honestly? It works. Numerical integration doesn't care about your feelings or your fancy antiderivatives.
