Are you supposed to actually understand math or just mindlessly follow it’s processes?

Depends on what you're study. If you're studying math, yes. If you're studying physics, no.

you are first explained a concept or concepts (like addition), some you may understand, other you may not fully understand at the time, you then follow established processes and your understanding deepens and solidifies.

you're supposed to understand it eventually, but it takes a lot of time spent thinking about the topic.

depends what you mean
generally yes you should understand what the hell you're doing the first time, as in what the abstract objects are and the meaning of each step you're taking is
what may be initially unclear is the significance or motivation for actually solving those problems

mix of both. As you go on its easy to grasp but the higher you go you're going to be using foundational skills to see where things go then after a couple of hits and misses, it becomes internalized and you get your "aha" moment. Sometimes its really hard to tell though so you do have to just keep playing with things constantly to see where it goes until it clicks

The virgin follows mindlessly, the actual chad understands it and its so much easier then, you dont stare at the equations like its some mona fucking lisa in a museum, you just know what you can do.

It's a language formulated based on our instinct for quantity. The rigor meant to formalize it made it a bane considering languages constantly evolve.

You are suppose to use it to program mindless machines that implement ALUs and higher level of logic that will allow you to execute commands that make life easier.

>or

There is no difference between the two. "understanding" math is merely sufficient memoization/internalization of said processes.

You don't think there are any more novel relationships like e^ipi=-1 or E=mc^2 to discover?

The equation is like a library in math. If you want to use the quadratic equation to solve a math problem, it's like inserting "#include <Quadratic equation>" and then you program the solution without understanding jack sh*t about the quadratic equation.
