Yes I totally agree with you mate. My initial intention was to let the readers to be aware that you wont be doing much proofing if any at all in the econ phd program as you do with Math RA. And a course in any mathematical proof-based course would be suffice for the math rigor. ie, RA is NOT a necessary condition. FYI, Advanced Calculus does cover extensively the topics u mentioned above in term of proofing, and providing examples and counter-examples.
