Your reasoning is also exactly why I don't like the "You won't have a calculator" excuse. It completely leaves out the importance of understanding the concepts of mathematics. If you don't understand how the math works, you'll have no idea I'd what the calculator spits out makes sense or even put it into the calculator in the first place. And even then some calculators do actually do things differently.

By the time I was in grade school we already had basic calculators that fit in pockets and that's ignoring that pocket sized slide rules have existed for decades before that.
