I don't know why people keep getting surprised by this stuff. The internet is home to tons of passionate minorities. But companies make money by playing to the silent majority.

Ugh. The worst kind of nerd, "you don't love this thing as deeply and specially as I do" entitlement. Guess what: this is not a way to get people to like math and numbers more.
