I'm sorry for making two frustrated posts in one day, but:

What a student writes (this is an authentic example):
"It should be mentioned that in all calculations the assumption is that we start the pandemic with just one infected person."

What a mathematician would write:
"Set I(0) = 1."

I mean, the first sentence is not grammatically wrong, but it is very stylistically wrong. : )
