I don't know what you're asking.

If someone chooses to avoid learning math because they're just not interested in the topic, then that's fine. It's disingenuous to claim that they lack aptitude math when they only lack motivation to learn math.

It's easy to claim to be "not a math person" and use that as an excuse to be lazy about numbers. I'm not accusing you, wuf, or anyone in particular of thinking this way. I just come across this attitude all the time, and at least some people are only held back in math because they didn't realize they were just being lazy about thinking about numbers.
