Well I said it was my view; as in it would have made math enjoyable to me. As for it working only in higher levels of math my intuition tells me otherwise, but I have no first hand experience in trying to teach children so it might be as you say.
An aside: your second sentence is false, specifically if dealing in mod 2, mod 3 and mod 4.
