Studying Mathematics is not just about learning how to use equations and some formulas or additions but rather learning how to approach very complex and highly abstract tasks. Think of how you'd develop a programming language from scratch without any use of toolkits such as LLVM. There, having been challenged with math problems before is off great help.
