Learning to code would have been much harder if I hadn't grasped algebra.
Calculus is important for understanding science (especially physics) and statistics.
These are not niche subjects for "the few weird students." They are really important to grasp for many roles in the knowledge economy. Your kids will enter a world of robotics and automation. They're going to need to use their brains if they want to succeed.
I'm 100% against a dumbing down of the education system to achieve ideological leftwing aims.
