I've done far more math than most physicists. If a beam or column looks like it won't support the required load, it isn't necessary to confirm that by doing any math. Experience, combined with intuition, can eliminate the need to try things known not to work. Buildings that have... 'failed' often did so because the designers trusted the math while not allowing their intuition to have full play. One example: The "bracing members" of a large truss system spanning a football stadium had no "calculable" load. So the computer selected something like a 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" x 1/4" angle for the braces each more than 10 feet long. The contractors were able to construct the thing. And the "engineers" looking at it continued to trust the computer design. After the first light snowfall, some of the tack welds snapped and the rest of the angles buckled due to eccentricities in loading that the computer program didn't consider... and the entire roof collapsed. Luckily, the stadium was empty at the time. I'll do math any time such is necessary. When it isn't, I'll leave the mathaholics to you and the accountants!

Likely, your problem is that you are a niche specialist of some kind, who never got the acclaim that you figured you deserved. To compensate, you became a pedantmouthing-off whenever you figure you can look "superior". You're in good company; Albert Einstein was a pedant, toothough most of his display was the memorized or plagiarized statements of others. Instead of trying, vainly, to run me down for not jumping at your suggestion that I do costly experiments, realize that there are only 24 hours in a day. You, and any others, are at liberty to perform Henry Cavendish or other type experiments in support of my New Science!

When the truth be known, PD, is this low I. Q. flunky who compensates by constantly faulting his superiors. He has never stated a single contribution that he has made to science.
