I have a maths degree
I get tired of the "why not teach something relevant" crowd

Critical thinking is more important, and actually being able to look at figures, know what confidence limits are, and know how stats can be twisted by the unscrupulous would be useful is part of that.

Relevance could be life skills that teach you to literally read between the lines, and maths is right in there, if it was properly taught.
