I don’t how you teach basic counting at a young age in French without learning higher grade level math.
-
Joke aside, it's not taught as 4 × 20 +10 but simply “90 is pronounced quatre-vingt-dix” — which kinda is a mouthful, but you rarely count to 90 as a kid anyway.

Sounds like you were just a quitter. I counted to 100 all the time to show off.

I'm counting to 100 right now, fight me!

It's only 3.5 syLAbles, barely longer to say then "seventy".
-
Same number of syllables is the letter "w" has in English.
-
If you add a little "uh" to the end of it, yeah.

Which surely works only until you need to say 91, which does not start "quatre-vingt-dix."
