And I would dare to disagree right here. Math contains many structures that we don't know from our universe and that probably do not exist in our universe. If math is a model of universe, why is there a Mandelbrot set?
- wmal 3y agoYes, that is an intrinsic property of all models. They are imperfect, and we accept it as long as the models are useful for some purposes. My map has a text written on it saying “Pacific Ocean”, yet I would not complain if I went to this place an couldn’t find a giant object in the ocean that would look like a letter P from the skies.
