Are you claiming that math is not a kind of conceptual analysis or just that the conceptual analysis in math is more rigorous (less likely to produce bad results because it relies less on natural language)?
The second, as well as observing that as far as the task of describing what philosophers actually do is concerned, labeling math as a member of the category "conceptual analysis" isn't very helpful.
