However, I realized that as a computer programmer, I would have done math by computer, not by hand. I am inclined to think that a bachelor's in computer programming would have been more useful than one in Spanish, and here I was going through that all over again.

Dam your the same way, i was going for computer science (requires a minor in math at my school), i was always good at math til calc. gave up changed majors to IT told my prof that and he raised my grade 30% to pass the class
I think the same way if i always have a computer by my side in the age of smartphones why do i need to remember everything
