I know math is supposed to be the class that trains your logical thinking but I heard some people argue about it being too abstract and hard to apply in real life, particularly the more complex ones like calculus where they say they can't find any real world scenario where it would be helpful.
Logic puzzles on the other hand involve strengths that are immediately recognized in knowing how to apply to the real world. Then sometimes, to add new dimensions to puzzles, math may get involved, which is a nice way to familiarize people how math itself relates to problem solving.
I also believe puzzle classes would also be good for students who are usually bored as these classes can be more of a challenging game and by solving these puzzles they learn and analyze puzzle solving techniques which in turn are problem solving techniques. Ones such as awareness of preconception, elimination, analyzing details or creative resourcefulness. Ones on the TED-ed channel of Youtube has a great variety.
I also believe puzzles can benefit students on a personal level too. Learning not to be judgmental and grasp scenarios that are difficult to understand. These are skills I think many people today sorely lack. Puzzle classes may lead to a very intelligent society in the future and when people understand puzzles well enough, they may even develop more amazing ones that will further our understanding of the abstract world.
