I guess its all coming down to mnemonics, aiding our memories and communicating.
Sure this is the "state of the art", but despite the fact that pure language notations might be even worse, i cant help to think that people thinking like the parent might find something even better.
Maybe something inspired by braille notation or something that is invented while trying to understand how our brain works (just speculating here) will be even more expressive.
I actually like seeing an adult be bothered by the fact that the same symbols that turn science more expressive are also the reason that there's a big ladder for newcomers to understand whats being expressed given its all very arbitrary (someone in
the XVI century choose a random greek letter to represent X).
Imagine how much science would improve with more "brain power" being also able to try to solve some problems given there are less arbitrarity..
