You really like to assume. Have fun with your logarithms. I bet you could get a lot of people over for a party to talk about them or view some interesting ones.
As for the physical exercise, of course, that is very good. Not sure why you are so negative and down on art and music. Do you grasp the concept of well rounded? It means that you can converse intelligently on a wide variety of topics.
I’m starting to think maybe you fell off your horse one time too many (or took a few too many karate chops to the head). [kidding]
P.S. You’ll find that even math classes are not without their own claptrap. Have even had math professors get on their soapbox with a political rant.
“Do you grasp the concept of well rounded? It means that you can converse intelligently on a wide variety of topics.”
So why do you artificially limit those topics to paintings and ancient plays? Why do you think a well-rounded person needs to discuss a Greek play, but not be able to discuss....oh, ballistics, crime, training horses, math, botany, genetics, business, software, engineering, construction, carpentry....get the idea?
There are a hundred (maybe more like a thousand) subjects, and the only ones YOU care about are paintings, music & ancient plays.
BTW - if you want to read ancient Greeks, why not Xenophon’s “On the Art of Horsemanship”:
“Inasmuch as we have had a long experience of cavalry, and consequently claim familiarity with the art of horsemanship, we wish to explain to our younger friends what we believe to be the correct method of dealing with horses. True there is already a treatise on horsemanship by Simon,1 who also dedicated the bronze horse in the Eleusinium at Athens and recorded his own feats in relief on the pedestal. Nevertheless, we shall not erase from our work the conclusions that happen to coincide with his, but shall offer them to our friends with far greater pleasure, in the belief that they are more worthy of acceptance because so expert a horseman held the same opinions as we ourselves: moreover, we shall try to explain all the points that he has omitted.
First we will give directions how best to avoid being cheated in buying a horse....”
