I can see where he's coming from. Geometric intuition is an useful tool but in this semester's linear 2 class I developed more because I stopped using it. It's too strong of a tool and blots out "dryer" intuition and methods, and also as you progress you find more and more places where it's not useful. What's the geometrical intuition for whether two circles intersect in Q^2? who knows?
