Asian families, for sure. But that’s doesn’t explain that vast chasm we all observed between non-Asians in school growing up. Why not just accept that it’s possible to be born with an aptitude for math?
If We closely guard this secret instead of telling people on online forums, We could gaslight people into thinking they are at fault for not being good enough at math. Then We mathematize everything that can be mathematized in higher education and research, and gatekeep it by requiring math even when it's not strictly needed.
(I mean, that's not my opinion, that's just how modern society has been running for... a century or two?)
