We need a word-less world of math where all meaning is derived from figures. WOrds are confusing.
"If you can't describe the meaning using only pencils and compass, you don't mean it"

Nowadays, we have symbolic notation. The only research articles I read are for epidemiology, so I don't know how much notation is used in pure math journals. But I can't remember seeing any notation in those articles beyond what one would encounter in high school. I guess authors see more value in deceptive narrative and descend into strict logical languages only when necessary.
