Einstein's Brain

Remember about a month ago when scientists stated that Einstein's brain was abnormally large in the area that supposedly controls the ability to do math? Well, isn't it also true that when it came to mathematics, Einstein was rather limited? He could see and understand the physics of the universe, but he needed mathematicians to help him put it into equations and formulae. Ergo, Einstein's large brain growth says that either that part of the brain doesn't control math or maybe that part of the brain only controls the concepts but not the communication of mathematics.
