 I'll second that!  Mathematical expressions, though often dry and colorless,

 are an effective way to avoid these semantic and ideological conflicts.

Also, the beauty expressed in mathematics is clearly evident when trying to
manipulate the phenomena generated by the device under experiment.

Without having a clear understanding of the mathematics of one's own
experiments, one cannot begin to know the ramifications of the results
attempting to be resolved.

Otherwise, you're just shooting in the dark.
