Stats is technically math but it's the softest math you can imagine. A huge amount of it is data collection and interpretation. It works different parts of your brain, requires different skills than pure math

Statistics is a sociological discipline that is based mostly on mathematical models. Choosing your interpretation, and data collection methodology, typically means much more than the math you do on the data.
