FWIW, I do believe that non-poets and non-artists can express themselves without equations. That seems kind of like a no-brainer, otherwise we wouldn’t be able to communicate at all. Still, artists can probably express themselves better, on the average, than computer scientists and mathematicians. There’s nothing wrong with that; we’re good at one thing, they’re good at another, it’d be a boring old world if everyone was the same.
That’s just my personal opinion, though, I’m making no claim regarding whether Eliezer believes this or not.
