I was talking about math, not code.
Of course, in cases like Coq and Agda, the overlap between the two can
be significant, so there's a commensurately strong pressure to make sure
the code follows the same notation as the math, to make it easier to
relate the two (which is often crucial, since the code is the one
that's mechanically checked to convince one that the math is right).
