The irony being that your mathy conferences didn't mention the observational bias of conferences themselves filtering towards "socially normal people" than "computer nerds in general"

You are comparing those who speak a language very few can fathom to a magnitude more, less specialized, more general base, which in itself, is a superset of math nerds.

Almost all math nerds are "computer nerds" to the-non STEM type.

Control for proper prevalence and youll find your circle is much smaller than you wish you would believe.



I have no idea what you are trying to say here.
