If you're learning math for career reasons rather than just pure curiosity, engineering is the main/possibly only place you'd use it besides statistical analysis.
Yeah that sounds about right. I was more musing about the philosophical boundary between math and engineering (math being a creative pursuit and engineering being about outcomes).
I can't quite pin it down, like with a definition, but I'm tempted to say that if it has a linter it's not math anymore, even if it once was.
