I didn't learn that way and I never relied on my calculator.
Yeah - when I was a kid, they made us memorize the addition and multiplication tables. THEN they taught us how to use those skills to do complex addition/substraction/multiplication/division - THEN we learned algebra and later calculus.
They never tried to confuse us from the beginning.
