I've gotta say, this list feels pretty paltry. Even if it's a good idea to understand the world by pattern-matching to certain concepts (I don't think it is, tbh), it seems like a really poor practice to only use patterns that are ahistorical (and usually mathematical or quasi-mathematical).
Put another way, I think your toolbox for understanding the world should probably include some history, psychology, sociology. Putting the world in terms of math and only math is helpful sometimes but extremely misleading other times.
It's possible I just didn't understand what he's getting at, though. Particularly, what about this list is "fearless"? From what I can see, none of it even seems controversial.
