Poor comparison in this case.
Are you going to make a mathematical model when you got a little stream to
cross and you have a few available planks to do it?

We learn mathematics etc so that we can make numerical models which give 
us design information.  Imagine trying to build every combination of a 
bridge to settle on a design!

Make a mathematical model and get it close to optimal at the first attempt.
