Some of your points remind me of Underwood Dudley's 2010 article "What is Mathematics For?" [1]. Briefly, he argues that we greatly exaggerate how much math you actually need in most jobs that people usually think of as needing math, but nevertheless learning math is worthwhile and important because of what it teaches you about how to think.
