From Osher Doctorow

A comparison of Paul Dirac and Albert Einstein indicates that although
both referred to "beauty" and even simplicity of equations, Einstein
meant symmetry of variables or powers in equations, while Dirac
largely meant using new types of mathematics to make equations more
concise or literally easier to both visualize and understand, such as
Clifford Algebra and spinors.
I'll try to continue this shortly.
