Yes, if the theorem statement itself is "hard to formalize" even given our current tools, formal foundations etc. for this task, this suggests that the underlying math itself is still half-baked in some sense, and could be improved to better capture the concepts we're interested in. Much of analysis-heavy math is in that boat at present, compared to algebra.
