#2My wish is for math to remove all the gatekeeping layers and one day, everyone can do maths, just like with programming.

I'm curious, what do you see as "gatekeeping layers" in math? Books? Material? Pedagogy? Nomenclature? Something else?

Programming should remove all gatekeeping one day so everyone can do programming

Not OP, but I'd like to add the term “learning complexity reduction” which relates closely to “pedagogy”.
Reflecting on my experience as a CS graduate with a strong interest in math (though not very advanced knowledge), I realize I would have benefited from a more intuitive, black-box approach when first engaging with complex topics, rather than diving straight into their intricacies.

Yes, like the Fields Medal. Everyone should get a Fields Medal, that way we're all winners.
Or the Riemann Hypothesis! Why not call it the American Hypothesis? That way everyone could think it.

Everyone can do maths.
All you need is pencil and paper. Or download Lean, if that's your preference.
Of course it's possible that instead of "no gatekeeping" what you mean is "free tutoring".

What gatekeeping? Anyone is free to do math to the extent of their abilities. Math is known for accepting contributions from other fields. You don't need special credentials in math to publish a book or paper about math. It helps but it is not essential. Some academic positions are very difficult to get without a proper degree in the subject but that applies to every field, and for good reason.

Not really gatekeeping, but as someone who likes to self-study, not having solutions is very annoying.
