We wouldn't call them not good at math either.

Most people wouldn't call it a situational disability because they don't know the term. But it's a common term in relevant fields.

I have seen multiple people throughout my life say "I can't do math today" while referring to their work and then avoid doing computationally-heavy tasks for the day.
"Can't do math today" and "not good at math" are different.
It's "temporarily being not good at math", which is the point.
