How did you turn «doesn’t try to include context» into «completely useless»?

Bourbaki has no history, no diagrams, limited motivating discussion. It strives to be entirely axiomatic/formal, and to be organized in a strictly “logical” fashion. Bourbaki claims that intuition and analogy are dangerous/faulty and should be avoided.

That doesn’t mean you can’t learn anything from it.
