Totally disagree
You're thinking of equations, which only have one answer. There are often many possible ways to solve and tackle problems.
If you'll permit an analogy, even though there's "only one way" to use a hammer and nail, the overall problem of joining wood can be solved in a variety of ways.
You're absolutely right. I was referring to equations which, in my experience, is 90% of undergrad math.
