Not to mention calculus takes a longer time to learn. This is not to say that it is necessarily more difficult than other types of mathematics (it isn't), it is just extremely tedious and its purpose (i.e. creating complex machinery) is immediately evident upon studying it.

Although I would say some False Leftists who claim Calculus as having non-Western origins are redeemable, as they are merely trying to repudiate the hubris of Westerners, who claim intellectual "superiority". This is especially humiliating if one cannot thouroughly rebut the arguments, and thus has to concede the Western standards of "superiority". I recall when on ProBoards I was venting about this subject, I was more or less hinting at these False Leftists.
