I don't see this being a huge hurdle to programs to help with problem solving. Back in the aughts, I would regularly write programs to solve basic kinematic equations in basic and distribute them to my fellow classmates under the blessing of the instructor. I got to reinforce my mental models of kinematics and I removed some hurdles for my fellow students who were good at problem solving and rearranging variables but weaker at math. Ultimately, I learned so much from that class.
