Maybe the quantum waveform probabilities are irrational numbers. That's the closest thing I know of that might not be finite and discrete. I'm including fractions in my 'finite and discrete' definition.
My understanding is quantum physics disproves the 'clockwork universe' because it is probabilistic instead of deterministic. Nothing to do with using real numbers.
Also, even if the universe made use of real numbers, the universe can still be computable in an asymptotic sense, which is still inadequate to violate the law of information conservation.
Violation of said law requires essentially non mathematical entities, such as halting oracles and non stochastic processes (neither deterministic, random, nor combination thereof). None of which are dealt with in the STEM fields.
