Nope, but mathematics research is one of the most rarefied fields being extremely difficlt to get into, hard to get money, etc. -- (this is my understanding, at least). Progress is made here by people who, aged 10 are already showing signs of capability.

There's not much need for a large amount of PhD places, and funding, for pure mathematics research.

Likewise, on the applied side, "calculus" now as a pure thing has been dead alone time. Gradients are computed with algorithms and numerical approximations, that are better taught -- with the formal stuff maintained via intuition.

I'm much more open to the idea that the west has this wrong, and we should be more focused on developing the applied side after spending the last century overly focused on the pure
