I... think I learnt math in a very different way to you. If I didn't feel that I understood something, I went back until I felt that I did.
I do not understand the difference between an "abstract understanding" and a "feeling of common sense". Is a feeling of common sense not a subtype of an abstract understanding (in the same way that a "square" is a subtype of a "rectangle")?
