Indeed! I suspect/realize that the incompleteness proofs are in fact artifacts of our discrete symbolization - a discrete symbolization that though has been incredibly effective about reasoning about continuous 'phenomena'.
Perhaps that is exactly what mathematics is? and all it can be? Or perhaps there is a 'higher mathematics' that we cannot reach yet? (or ever?)
