1) Someone reading the code needs to do a lot of work to try to recover the
original equation

That's what comments are for, I suppose.

2) Wouldn't an imperative loop, using the original equation directly, have

In fact, according to your point 2, it is not the laziness that
brought us here, but being functional.

Just my 2 cents.
