Which really is simply because it is not taught at school. There is no 
reason for that other than tradition. Trust me, it can be learned and be 
as natural as Boolean algebra, base eight 
(http://jp.youtube.com/watch?v=a81YvrV7Vv8) or finite state machines, 
none of which is taught at highschool nowadays (anymore*).
