Good points,
I think the guide to asking questions on Math, Algorithms and Data structures is to ask real world problems which will require you to use these problems.
Its like Math Vs Physics. You can learn the pure math there is out there, but unless you start studying physics you don't quite see how those concepts are applicable to the real world.
Similarly, its simple to ask these questions to a programmer. Give him a real world programming problem to solve, and then see how he uses the concepts from math and CS to solve them.
