You can use exponential with matrices as well.

That some people don’t want to understand deeply the tools they use don’t make their tools superficial or “hotfixes”

I mean the guy has a PhD in mathematics so I'm sure he understands his tools deeply. Certainly more deeply than I did when I was an undergraduate in his class. Sometimes the right analogy, even if imperfect, is more helpful to build intuition than pages of rigorous proofs. Chill out.
