> I don't have to think and do math in my head

Imagine being a computer programmer and not thinking nor doing math in your head.

Good thing there are other people to do the thinking and math for you, huh?

Because the multiplication table for 0.25 is too complicated...

Next you'll need an enterprise-grade library for adding numbers together. Because sums are hard, man. Who's got time to remember what 1+1 is?
