Interesting. What about machine proof checking? Why don't mathematicians publish all results in a formal notation (in addition to the human-oriented one) that allows all proofs to be checked, and entered into an Internet repository available to automated proof assistants?
For the same reason not all software is written in Coq/Agda/other proof systems: it would be incredibly expensive, slow, and demand very rare skills.
