When I saw the headline, I really hoped the article would be about some neuro-linguistic phenomenon that made native speakers of Japanese uniquely able to understand some mathematical proof.

Same! I think we may have more success with Lojban. Speaking of, are there any children whose native language is Lojban? That would definitely make for some interesting "case studies". I certainly want my kid to be bilingual, English and Lojban. :)
