This is encouraged in 'new math'! Kids are explicitly taught and validated in using these compensation strategies instead of feeling like they are doing something wrong.

Well that would have helped me back in the 2000's when i was told i worked out maths problems differently to everyone else with this sort of method even though i got the same answers. One teacher had me show my working out for a bunch of problems to understand how i was doing it and it made me internally feel bad at maths because i did it 'wrong'.
