I can only blame the usual slopiness of mathematicians,

That's "sloppiness" :P.

I don't consider these errors to be of the kind that damages credibility. That may be self-serving, though, since I make them all the time. But then again, I am a mathematician.

No, "slopiness" works too -- mathematicians have more slope in their heads ;-P
