Anecdotally, my engagement with philosophy resources, philosophers, and philosophy enthusiasts hasn't been supportive of this claim.

In particular, I have found them both incurious about math/logic (outside of specifically the parts labelled 'logic' as far as they relate to rhetoric) and their verbal skills to be lacking (more specifically, their inability/unwillingness to define their terms).

Also anecdotally, I really enjoyed my philosophy and logic courses in college. But, admittedly, my professors were closely aligned with the sciences in my school. One class was even taught by two professors: one from philosophy and one from science.
