Or can ideas in calculus be expressed (albiet not
as
succintly) in other
forms of math that existed at the time? (I've
never taken calculus, so I really am curious.)

Reggie, Hove you never hadthe experience of hearing a timber and then ~not~
being able to re-create it, not even close?
Yes and no. I've had the experience of looking at a picture of a waveform

imagining what it must sound like, and being completely wrong; I've looked

One of the interesting parts of this is that this question is not well
suited to empirical verification. We are discussing ideas that are
worthwhile, but never get communicated to the outside world. I think it is

Thinking some more about it, it seems that new forms of math are as likely
a candidate as any for ideas that cannot be expressed symbolically. But,
I've never heard of a mathematical system who's rules exist, but cannot be
