With no explanation, label text_A→text_B with either "DON'T KNOW", "NO" or "YES".
text_A: A real number "a" is first-order definable in the language of set theory, without parameters, if there is a formula "φ" in the language of set theory, with one free variable, such that "a" is the unique real number such that "φ"("a") holds (see). This notion cannot be expressed as a formula using simple mathematics, and so it required the creation of the language of set theory to be formally expressed.
text_B: Would a gifted student from a science, technology, or engineering field, who had studied enough math to handle all practical applications yet had mostly avoided more theoretical aspects such as set theory, be able to express this notion as a formula, if asked, even if the result had little to no meaning to said student?
NO.
