It is certainly fascinating when you think about specific contexts and how they tend to “feel” more appropriate to think in a certain way. The key here is “tend” as there are always other students with different life experiences or perspectives that can break the script on this thinking as well. This variability and often unpredictable nature of mathematics is what definitely keeps me interested in teaching these days!
