wouldn't you like to have the possibility to write vector calculations in a similar notation to what you have learned in school instead of writing many lines of vec_ commands?

i know how to work with transformation matrices and i also know how to interpret the content of a transformation matrix but i think what really happens during a matrix*matrix multiplication is very hard to imagine/visualize for (most) human brains. matrices probably are better suited for computers.
