Such a format would not matter, because most programmers are anti-research, anti-math, and anti anything other than shipping Agile software.

Programmers are not computer scientists any more than civil engineers are material researchers.

Software "engineering" isn't. It's all about processes and very little about standardization of process and verification of outcomes.
