I had the opposite problem when I was learning linear algebra. The professor kept things at the most abstract and generic level, which made it hard to understand what was going on, because it felt like everything was “the thing is defined as the thing”. I don’t think it fully clicked for me until I took another class that involved some actual numerical applications of those ideas.
