But Platonism is not a model of anything at all. It’s just a philosophical idea which, by the way, has no impact on mathematics proper, either.

  Platonism is a metaphysical model of the universe. It’s also one of the most popular approaches to the philosophy of mathematics. This is explained in the link I posted.

    In the link, they only talk about "models of a theory" and the "mathematical/set-theoretical universe," none of which has to do with "a metaphysical model of the universe."

      https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platonism https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platonism This is…basic philosophical knowledge about Plato’s ideas. It’s not up for debate.
