Why do you think them being a computer science person has anything to do with it?

So, I did computer science almost two decades ago and our school as part of an engineering degree. Our school taught differential equations as an optional course. However, for all other engineers it was a required course.

Today, computer science at my old school is part of liberal arts and differential equations isn’t listed anywhere on the curriculum.

Because many aren’t taught differential equations it’s hard to know what they can do, or how to use them so it’s easier to just get an expert.
