It's not really philosophically, though. As a pure mathematician, I would not consider CS a subfield of math. The spirit of math is really studying abstract axiomatic systems, and while CS in theory is sort of like that, in actual practice, CS is too tied and focused on the actual instantiation of computers to really have the spirit of math.

Many would disagree with your characterisation of pure mathematics, computer science, or both. And I am certain that computer science yields nothing to pure mathematics in her pursuit of abstraction.

All I know is that when I read computer science, it doesn't feel like math at all. Other people can characterize it however they choose.

Most CS in practice is really software engineering
